As an actor and athlete, Saiyami Kher has a different perspective on her acting and sporting achievements. But while athletic victories are personal for her, Saiyami likes to practise detachment when it comes to her films.
The actor, last seen in Agni (2024), is currently shooting in Hyderabad for her next with Sunny Deol. She tells, “With films, the biggest learning I have is detachment. When I deliver a performance and we pack up, I feel happy to have pushed myself.”
She goes on to assert, “However, my happiness cannot depend on whether a film is a big commercial hit or not because there are so many factors that are not in your hands. It’s really tough, but I think you’ll go crazy if your worth depends on the success at the box-office.”
