Saiyami Kher to portray real life heroes in her two upcoming projects

Mumbai [Maharashtra], February 23 ANI): Saiyami Kher is known for picking up unconventional roles and the actress feels this year is a landmark one in that aspect as she will portray some real-life heroes in her upcoming releases- 'Ghoomer' and 'Angi'.
She will be seen playing a specially-abled cricket prodigy in R Balki's 'Ghoomer' and will also be playing the role of a firefighter in the action drama 'Angi', which also stars Pratik Gandhi.
Saiyami said, "I believe all heroes don't wear capes and there are many unsung heroes. I am looking forward to 2023 because I get to play a few such characters. A sportsperson, who, even after losing a hand, didn't lose her sportsman spirit or a lady firefighter, who is hardly spoken about. These characters don't just give you perspective on life as an actor but also as a human being."
Saiyami starrer 'Ghoomer' also has Abhishek Bachchan, Shabana Azmi and Angad Bedi in pivotal roles.
The story is co-written by Balki, along with Rahul Sengupta and Rishi Virmani, and is inspired by the story of Karoly Takacs, the late Hungarian right-hand shooter who won two Olympic gold medals with his left hand after his other hand was seriously injured.
