Saiyami Kher Unveils Motion Poster For Ghoomer

Actress Saiyami Kher unveiled the first look motion poster for Ghoomer, and confirmed the release date of sports drama helmed by R Balki, also starring Abhishek Bachchan.

Sharing the post on her social media profile, Saiyami Kher also wrote a long note, it read, “There are optimists, pessimists and then there are realists. I’m the third kind. It’s good to be rational and logical. When I was told that I’d be doing a film directed by R. Balki, I couldn’t believe it. Could it really be happening?”

“Then I was told that I would be sharing the screen with some people whom I’m very, very fond of. The incredibly talented and kind Abhishek Bachchan; and someone who has known me since I was a baby, the formidable Shabana Azmi. I was still pretending to be zen.”

“When I read the script, I saw that it was an author backed role about someone who fights all odds. If ALL this wasn’t enough, I was playing my favourite sport, cricket. I threw caution to the wind, and allowed myself to feel the excitement. Slowly, through this film, I realised, that life is about allowing yourself that happiness. About believing in yourself. About giving yourself another chance. I realised that life is so much more worthwhile when you throw the rationality out. Because life isn’t about logic. It’s about magic. #GhoomerInCinemas on 18th August! #RBalki @azmishabana18 @bachchan @angadbedi @rude_diaries @vishalsinhadop @itsamittrivedi @raahool19 @swanandkirkire @hopeprodn @rishivirmani @kukigrewal @ripudamandatta @aeshy @kausarmunir #PremVijan @penmarudhar.official” read the full note.
