Mumbai, January 12
Actor Saiyami Kher is all set to begin the shoot for an untitled new project directed by Vikram Phadnis.
The untitled project is a drama, with Saiyami headlining it in a powerful leading role along with Vineet Kumar Singh and Tahir Raj Bhasin.
Speaking about the project, Saiyami Kher shared, "Couldn't have asked for a better start to 2026. This film came to me at a very special time. The story resonated deeply with me, and I really am very grateful Vikram thought me worthy of this part. It's a challenging role that requires emotional honesty, and I'm grateful to be starting the year with a project that excites me so much as an actor"
With shooting now underway, this untitled drama marks Saiyami Kher's first project of the year and reinforces her commitment to meaningful, content-driven cinema.
This project, produced by Reel Euphoria in association with Knight Sky Movies, has officially gone on the floors.
This will be Vikram's third directorial venture and his first directorial in Hindi.
Apart from this, Saiyami will be seen in Priyadarshan's film, 'Haiwaan', featuring Bollywood stars Akshay Kumar and Saif Ali Khan.
She also featured in movies like 'Ghoomer' alongside Abhishek Bachchan, 'Agni' featuring Pratik Gandhi and 'Jaat' co-starring Sunny Deol.

Interesting cast with Vineet Kumar Singh and Tahir Bhasin. Both are solid actors. Hope Vikram Phadnis's shift to Hindi direction brings a fresh perspective. The industry needs more content-driven films like this.
Good to see her getting lead roles. But honestly, I hope the script is strong. Sometimes these 'meaningful' dramas can be a bit slow. Fingers crossed it's engaging for the audience as well.
She has a very busy year ahead with Haiwaan too! Working with Akshay and Saif is huge. It's great to see actors balancing smaller content films with bigger commercial projects.
Vikram Phadnis is a fantastic fashion designer, but directing is a different ball game. His third film and first in Hindi... hope he has a good story to tell. All the best to the team!
More power to women-led narratives! 🎬 Saiyami always chooses interesting scripts. From a sports drama like Ghoomer to this new project, she's carving a unique path. Can't wait to see the first look.
