AgenciesSaiyami Kher has carved a distinct place for herself in the Indian film industry, acting predominantly in Hindi and Telugu cinema. She stepped into the spotlight with her debut in the Telugu film Rey (2015), followed by a Bollywood entry through Mirzya (2016), a performance that earned her the Stardust Award for Superstar of Tomorrow – Female. Over the years, she has brought depth to her roles in projects like Mauli (2018), Choked (2020), Wild Dog (2021), and Ghoomer (2023). Her presence has also been felt on digital platforms, with acclaimed performances in Special OPS (2020) and Faadu (2022).
In a heartfelt conversation with Bollywood Bubble, Saiyami opened up about her recent experiences collaborating with industry veterans Abhishek Bachchan in Ghoomer and Sunny Deol in the upcoming film JAAT.
When asked about working alongside actors from established film families, Saiyami shared her deep admiration for Abhishek Bachchan. “I always speak warmly about AB,” she began, noting that their association stretches over four years and includes three major projects, including the series Breathe and the film Ghoomer.
What stands out most to her about Abhishek is his grounded nature. “Regardless of his lineage—nepotism or not—he’s incredibly well-mannered and humble,” she said. She admired how Abhishek doesn’t shy away from poking fun at himself, especially in interviews about nepotism. To her, that ability reveals his deep-rooted confidence.
Saiyami further expressed that it’s rare to find actors who are so self-assured. “AB is one of the most emotionally secure people I’ve ever known. That’s why he’s also such a secure actor,” she reflected. Despite being born into a legendary film family, Abhishek hasn’t had an easy path. Saiyami recounted his stories of being dropped from projects without notice. “It shocked me,” she admitted. “You never imagine someone like him facing such rejection. But he never complains. He just accepts it and moves forward. That kind of mindset speaks volumes.” With over 80 films to his name, Saiyami believes it’s his inner strength that’s carried him so far.
Talking about her time with Sunny Deol on the set of JAAT, she described him as refreshingly grounded. “We didn’t get too much time together, but even in that short span, his sincerity stood out,” she said. Unlike many in the industry, Sunny avoids the social spotlight. “He told me, ‘I’ve always been this way—I just love working and staying focused.’” For Saiyami, that honesty was inspiring. “He’s proof that we only see half the story—the rest stays quietly behind the scenes.”
As for Abhishek, audiences can soon catch him in the upcoming comedy Housefull 5.
