Bollywood actress Saiyami Kher made her debut in the Hindi film ‘Mirzya’ opposite Harsh Varrdhan Kapoor. The film directed by the famed Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra was promoted as the launchpad of Anil Kapoor`s son. The 2016 fantasy romantic film, however, failed to impress the audience and tanked at the box office. Talking to mid-day.com, Saiyami spoke about the impact of the film`s failure on her career and how it made her realise the importance of box office success for a film.
"There is a dialogue in Zoya (Akhtar)`s film. Your first film chooses you don`t choose it. So I was very lucky to be rejected everyday before ‘Mirzya’. Rakeysh sir told me that this isn`t the quintessential commercial film. When I was signing the contract, he asked `are you sure you want to do?” Saiyami said recalling the beginning of her acting career.
