Actor Saiyami Kher will next be seen in fashion designer and film director Vikram Phadnis’s yet-to-be-titled social drama.

Making the announcement via a press note, Saiyami stated that the role would be more emotion-driven and will allow the actor to step into a “quieter and more vulnerable space.”

Speaking about the role, the actor said, “I have played characters that are physically very demanding for a long time, and those roles have shaped me a lot as an actor. This film is very different. It’s softer, more emotional, and relies heavily on internal journeys rather than external action. That was what attracted me to it. “

“Sometimes portraying vulnerability is far more challenging, and I was keen to explore that space again,” she added.

Saiyami was last seen in the Sunny Deol actioner Jaat (2025). She also has Akshay Kumar and Saif Ali Khan starrer Haiwaan in the pipeline and also a short film with her 8 A.M. Metro (2023) co-star Gulshan Devaiah.
