Saiyami Kher gearing up for big Telugu debut
Chennai, March 17, 2015: Actress Saiyami Kher's long wait is finally coming to an end as her much-delayed Telugu debut project "Rey" is finally releasing. Although slightly disappointed about the delay, she says all good things take time.
YVS Chowdhary-directed "Rey", which was originally scheduled for release early last year, will now release on March 27 in cinemas.
"I should admit I'm disappointed with the delay but I strongly believe that it takes time for all good things to happen. It's definitely worth the wait and I'm lucky to have been part of 'Rey'," Saiyami told IANS.
Saiyami was roped in after the director was impressed with her Kingfisher calendar photo-shoot.
In the movie, Saiyami's role is an integral part of the story. She plays a goal-focused character called Amrita, who travels from India to the US to take part in a talent competition.
"The best part about my role is I don't just come and dance in a few songs and disappear. This is what attracted me to the project. Whatever films I do, I want to contribute to them through my performance, and not just merely be part of the cast," she said.
Saiyami describes "Rey" as a dance-based film and admits it was challenging to match steps with her co-star Sai Dharam Tej.
