Amar Kaushik directorial Bala has been receiving rave reviews for its narrative and performances. In fact, Bala is one of those films which has not only succeeded in winning over critics, but the audience at large as well. Only three days have passed since its release and it has collected an impressive Rs 43.95 crore.Coming back to the performances, while Ayushmann Khurrana and Bhumi Pednekar are convincing as their characters (although in Bhumi’s case, the layers of make-up to make her skin dark was a bit of a distraction at first), for me, it was Yami Gautam who stole the talented duo’s thunder with her act as the insecure and ‘innocently’ vain Pari.Despite a relatively shorter screen time compared to her co-stars Bhumi and Ayushmann, it was Yami whose impact left the deepest marks.
