Yami Gautam who played the role of a visually impaired girl in Kaabil, was seen spreading awareness about the importance of Organ Donation on the account of World Organ Donation Day which falls on August 13th.

Yami in real life too has pledged to donate her eyes.

She took that decision before the actress was signed for 'Kaabil', in which she delivered a power packed performance.

In fact, it was not just Yami, but her entire family pledged to donate their eyes back then, which Yami is extremely proud of.

The actress feels that people often underestimate the things that they are blessed with until they lose it. So, she feels that pledging to donate her eyes is the least that she could do, to contribute to the society and touch someone's life, who would value having vision.

It is a great thought and a lot more people need to see it in this light.
