Actress Saiyami Kher recently reflected on her experience working with Abhishek Bachchan in 'Breathe' and 'Ghoomer'. The actress described him as the most secure actor she has worked with and praised his well-grounded upbringing in the industry. She also expressed her admiration for him. Saiyami went on to speak about Sunny Deol , with whom she had previously shared the screen.
Abhishek Bachchan is the most well-brought-up person
During a conversation with Bollywood Bubble, Kher called Abhishek Bachchan “the most well-brought-up person” she had ever met. She has spoken fondly of him in the past as well. “I spent around four years across three projects with him, and I keep saying that he is the most well-brought-up person I’ve met—nepo or no nepo, whatever. He’s just the most well-brought-up person,” she shared.
Admiring Abhishek’s humility and self-awareness, she said: “He makes fun of himself, which is the most endearing thing. If you see his interviews—especially when he talks about nepotism—he jokes about himself. And that, to me, shows how secure he is.”
Abhishek's struggles in the industry
Kher went on to discuss the often-unseen struggles that even star kids endure. She acknowledged that while many people assume Abhishek’s journey must have been easy due to his illustrious lineage, one particular incident stood out as truly shocking for her.
“But the stories I’ve heard from him were shocking. For instance, there were times when he didn’t even know he had been replaced—overnight. I was honestly shocked, because I would’ve never imagined he’d gone through that kind of thing. But he’s never spoken about it—because I guess he never felt the need to. He’s such a secure person that it’s like, ‘Okay, this happened. I’ve moved on,’” she added.
Sunny Deol's Simplicity Left a Mark
Saiyami, who worked with Sunny Deol in ' Jaat ', was struck by the actor’s grounded nature and strong work ethic. Kher admired Deol’s disinterest in the glamour typically associated with the film industry.
