Actor Yami Gautam on Monday revealed she has been dealing with keratosis pilaris, a type of incurable skin condition, for ‘many years.’ The Bhoot Police actor decided to open up about the condition to let go of her ‘fears and insecurities,’ she wrote in a note on Instagram. Sharing pictures from her latest photoshoot, Yami wrote that the condition causes dry and rough patches with tiny bumps on the skin.
The 32-year-old actor said when the photos were about to go for post-production work to ‘conceal’ her skin condition, she chose to do away with the procedure. “I thought, ‘Hey Yami, why don’t you embrace this fact and accept it enough to be okay with it. Just let it be’ (Yes, I do talk out loud to myself). For those who haven’t heard about this, it’s a skin condition wherein you get tiny bumps on the skin. ‘I promise they aren’t as bad as your mind and your neighbor aunty makes it out to be. I developed this skin condition during my teenage years, and there is still no cure for it,” she wrote.
