Sayami Kher Joins Akshay Kumar And Saif Ali Khan in Priyadarshan’s New Film Haiwaan

Actress Sayami Kher just dropped some exciting news—and fans are buzzing! Taking to social media, she shared a heartfelt video and a caption filled with gratitude, revealing that she’s officially joined the cast of Haiwaan, the upcoming film directed by the legendary Priyadarshan. And the cherry on top? She’s starring alongside Bollywood icons Akshay Kumar and Saif Ali Khan. Talk about a dream team!

In her post, Sayami gushed about working with actors she’s grown up watching, calling Akshay “the OG Khiladi” and crediting him for inspiring her fitness journey. She also shared her admiration for Saif’s signature humor, even referencing his iconic film Dil Chahta Hai—a defining moment for every '90s kid. With Priyadarshan at the helm, who’s nearing his 100th film, the project already feels like a cinematic celebration in the making.

Titled Haiwaan, the film recently went on floors in Kochi, and production is officially underway. While the plot remains under wraps, the energy on set seems electric. Sayami mentioned she’s “smiling ear to ear” and feels lucky to be working with what she calls “some of the calmest, most sorted producers.” Sounds like a smooth ride filled with big talent and good vibes.

Fans are especially excited to see Saif and Akshay reunite on screen after more than 15 years—their last appearance together was in 2008’s Tashan. Their chemistry back then was a perfect mix of action and comedy, and adding Sayami Kher to the mix brings a fresh spark to this long-awaited pairing.

With an iconic director, a powerhouse cast, and Sayami's enthusiasm lighting up social media, Haiwaan already feels like one of the most exciting Bollywood projects to watch out for. The journey has only just begun, but it’s off to a fantastic start.
