Filmmaker R Balki’s Ghoomer received a lot of acclaim when it released in theatres last year. The film is about a para athlete cricketer played by Saiyami Kher who defies all odds to emerge victorious in life. Abhishek Bachchan played her coach and someone who had a large contribution in her character’s triumph.
EXCLUSIVE: Saiyami Kher on Ghoomer’s TV premiere, “TV telecasts are super important, the film unfortunately didn’t release at the best time theatrically” Ghoomer is now all set to have its television premiere on Zee Cinema on June 30 at 8 pm. In an exclusive interview with Bollywood Hungama , Saiyami reasoned why TV telecasts are important even in the OTT era. “I feel it’s super important because there is a whole generation and a whole part of society that (watch films on TV),” she said.
“I remember a lot of my relatives keep asking about a movie, ‘TV var kadhi yenaar aahe (When will it come on TV)?’ Even our current generation will watch a film on repeat because it’s coming on television. So I feel there is a very big audience that we will be hopefully tapping on.” Sharing the importance of Ghoomer in her filmography, Saiyami said, “The film is very close to my heart.
I want it to reach to as many people as possible. And Zee Cinema is a channel which is so widely watched. I keep saying that this is the most special film I have done in my life so far because I love the game and it was not only physically very challenging to play a para at.
