Saiyami Kher runs, cycles to and from sets to be fit and active

Actress Saiyami Kher is ensuring to catch up on her workout amid her busy shooting schedule by taking up running and cycling while commuting to shoots. The actress, who made her debut with the 2016 film “Mirzya,” has always been active in sports, and gives utmost importance to discipline.

Elaborating on her fitness method, the actress said that her workout routine not just keeps her physically fit but also mentally sound: “I don’t like to treat my workouts like a difficult task. The moment I do that, I start thinking of excuses. I love working out, not just for my physical health, but also for my mental health.”

However, she also has days when she feels lazy but she has a perfect trick up her sleeve to get back on the path of motivation: “Even though I have days when I am lazy, I remind myself of the sense of achievement when I get over that feeling. Moreover, since school I have been into sports. So having physical activity included in my daily routine is like a lifestyle that I have opted for.”

Interestingly, the actress has played cricket at school level for Maharashtra and made it to the National team selection, but instead, opted for badminton state championships.

Saiyami added: “I try to either cycle or run back from location. Not only does it save traffic time but also helps me unwind. I have also bought a really nice treadmill and a cycle trainer in my house so it’s very convenient even if I have strange hours at work I can train at home at any time. I train myself along with some friends who are very involved in fitness.”

On the work front, the actress has wrapped up the shooting of “Agni.” The film, based on the struggles and challenges faced by firefighters, stars “Mirzya” fame Saiyami Kher, “Scam 1992: The Harshad Mehta Story” star Pratik Gandhi and “Mirzapur” star Divyenndu.

“Agni,” which began its shoot in August in Mumbai, has been directed by Rahul Dholakia, who earlier directed the Shah Rukh Khan-starrer 2017 film “Raees.” Saiyami took to her social media and shared pictures with her colleagues and director saying, “It’s a wrap on Agni. I never like the feeling of wrapping up a film. Especially when you work with a bunch of like minded people, who got on like a house on fire (sic)”.

Apart from this Saiyami will next be seen essaying the lead on Balki’s “Ghoomer” with Abhishek Bachchan, Ashwini Iyer Tiwari’s maiden digital series “Faadu,” Anurag Kashyap’s next production with Gulshan Devaiah and Tahira Kashyap’s directorial debut “Sharmaji Ki Beti.” Apart from the cast, the producer of the film, Farhan Akhtar also shared on his social media about the wrap-up while congratulating the team.
