Sayani loves to have chocolates and frozen yogurts; interested in driving dirt bikes and wants her guy to be witty and intelligent.
FHM: Hey Sayani, wassup?
Sayani: Hey! Nothing much. Enjoying life.
You wowed us with your performance as the blind Khanum in “Margarita with a straw.” In fact, you’ve dabbled in everything from theatre to movies.
While researching for Margarita I got the opportunity of meeting and working closely with several people who are visually challenged and I observe them closely in their day to day life. This was such an overwhelming experience to see how self-sufficient, independent and empowered these individuals were, contrary to general perception. These individuals truly motivated me to celebrate life for whatever it is and at all times be constructively positive.
What has been the most inspiring filming experience so far?
One of the best things about being an actor is that you constantly come in contact with people who inspire you and change your perspective of looking at the lives of others. As for filming experience, two individuals who inspire me in so many different ways are Naseeruddin Shah, who has been my acting teacher and recently my co-actor in a film called ‘The Hungry’. The other individual is Shah Rukh Khan. Again, his ability to surrender to the role he is playing and his humility were motivating and mesmerising at the same time.
What have you found most challenging so far?
Nothing in particular. I love everything about the process of filmmaking and acting. And I look forward to the challenges because without those, it will become banal and boring.
