But when acting came into the picture, I realised I loved facing the camera and the different life that it brought with each character that I played onscreen.

“She further mentioned that as an actress and a sports enthusiast, she always harboured the dream of essaying the role of a cricketer, “But somewhere deep down in my heart I also wanted to always play a cricketer onscreen and fulfil my dream of being a cricketer no matter, even if meant as a role onscreen.

“And the film gave her the outlet to project her skills, “‘Ghoomer’ gave me that opportunity, it’s like a dream come true project for me. It was an emotionally and physically challenging role but I enjoyed every bit of it.

I don’t want to restrict myself and want to play more and more characters.”Interestingly, Saiyami has even played cricket at the school level for Maharashtra. The actress made it to the national team selection, but she opted for badminton state championships instead.
