Sai has always been passionate about dancing. In an older interview, India Today quoted her saying, “She (Sai's mother) started making me watch videos of Madhuri Dixit, Aishwarya Rai and I kept practicing and over time it gave me a lot of comfort because I used to get a lot of validation from mum and dad every time I danced and won a competition. I was like ‘Ok, I am good at this so let me start doing this’.”
