Desperate for Ratnam’s film to start, says Saiyami 

Actress Saiyami Kher, who is making her big screen debut with Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra's ‘Mirzya,’ says her next film with Mani Ratnam has been delayed and will perhaps only go on the floors by the end of this year.

Saiyami said, "I was approached by Mani sir and I feel so blessed. It's a dream to work with him. I got a call from his office saying that Mani sir wants to meet me. I went and he really liked the screen test and he said I am on, but unfortunately that film got delayed.

"It's a bilingual Telugu and Tamil film. I am still keeping my fingers crossed that it starts soon. I am hoping that by end of this year, we will start shooting it," she added.
