Saiyami said, "While growing up I always thought i would be a sportsperson some day since I loved being associated with the sports since my childhood. But when acting came into the picture, I realised I loved facing the camera and the different life that it brought with each character that I played onscreen. But somewhere deep down in my heart I also wanted to always play a cricketer onscreen and fulfill my dream of being a cricketer no matter, even if meant as a role onscreen. Ghoomer gave me that opportunity, it's like dream come true project for me. It was emotionally and physically challenging role but I enjoyed every bit of it. I don't want to restrict myself and want to play more and more characters."
