On Redefining Fitness, Mental Wellness, And Unrealistic Body Standards!
Sai Tamhankar

Sai Tamhankar is an Indian actress known for her work in Marathi, Hindi, Tamil, and Malayalam language films, and television. She is the recipient of two Filmfare Marathi Awards and one Filmfare Award.

She opens up in a candid conversation with Women Fitness India as she graces our November Cover on her journey so far, her love for acting, and being an accidental actor!

Sai you have been in the movie industry for more than a decade, tell us how did your journey begin, and was it always a dream to be an actor?

My journey began from my college, I like everyone else was a confused teenager, who wanted to be something new every week! *giggles*

I just decided to be a part of play back then, which was by chance a failure and I decided to be an actor post that.

I never dreamt to be an actor, I was very much into sports during my teenage days, and this happened by mistake and yet the "sweetest" mistake that I became an actor!

Besides being a prominent actor in the Marathi Industry you have been part of various Bollywood projects as well, tell us about your experience, and did you ever feel any difference?

I think apart from the scale, there is no major difference, the effort to get in the character remains same, the professionalism remains the same, and also both the industries have fantastic people to work with, also I feel the boundaries among various language based entertainment portals are now blurring and this is giving actors like me more opportunities to showcase our work and expand our horizon which is very helpful, so all in all the journey has been amazing so far and I can't wait to witness the rest!

With OTT being the big thing now, what are the kinds of projects you would like to be part of? Your favorite genre of work?
