 "Saiyami Kher all set to make her debut in Malayalam cinema with Roshan Mathew")
Saiyami Kher is all set to make her much-awaited debut in Malayalam films. The actress will be seen sharing screen space with talented Malayalam actor Roshan Mathew in a yet-to-be-titled project. Saiyami, who has previously worked with superstar Nagarjuna in Telugu films, will now explore the world of Malayalam cinema — a space that has recently caught the attention of several Bollywood actors for its rich storytelling and strong performances.
In today’s cinematic landscape where multilingual films and cross-industry collaborations are becoming the norm, this move marks a new and exciting chapter in Saiyami’s journey. The film will see her playing a parallel lead role, promising a compelling narrative and a fresh pairing. The shooting of the film has already commenced in Mumbai.
A source close to the project shared, “Saiyami has been keen on doing a Malayalam film for a while. She’s always been drawn to cinema that prioritises strong storytelling, and this script immediately stood out to her. Pairing with Roshan Mathew in a performance-driven role felt like the perfect next step.”
Saiyami Kher, who impressed audiences with her portrayal in films like Ghoomer, Sharmaji Ki Beti, Choked and others, created history by becoming the first Indian actress to complete the prestigious Ironman 70.3 triathlon in Germany.
The race consists of a 1.9 km swim, 90 km of cycling, and a 21.1 km run to be completed back-to-back without breaks.
Talking about the journey, she shared, “Crossing the finish line of the Ironman 70.3 and getting that medal has to be one of the proudest moments of my life. This has been on my bucket list forever, and I am just so happy I finally did it! Training for an Ironman while juggling 12 to 14-hour shooting was tough. There were days when motivation was nowhere to be found, and it really felt like a battle with myself.”
