Saiyami Kher takes part in Juhu Beach clean-up

Actress Saiyami Kher joined hands with environmental activist Afroz Shah for a beach clean-up activity called ‘Run For The Oceans’.

The actress took part in an early morning beach clean-up drive at Juhu Beach in Mumbai which was supported by Afroz and several volunteers who joined hands together for this important cause.

Saiyami said, “Mumbai has a rich coastline which is a jewel of the city. We as the citizens who make up this city need to do our part to keep the beaches clean not only for its recreational purposes but also for the fact that it’s the seas and oceans that are impacted largely by our ignorance when we don’t keep our beaches clean.”

“Plastic, rubbish and more such harmful things are often disposed off affecting the cleanliness and overall health of the ocean and the marine life. I wanted to do my very small effort by joining this amazing cause with Afroz to contribute a small effort that can go a long way”.

On the work front, Saiyami will be seen in Ashwiny Iyer Tiwary’s web series ‘Faadu’. It is a love story that also features Pavail Gulati and Abhilash Thapliyal.

Apart from this, Saiyami Kher is a part of Tahira Kashyap’s upcoming film ‘Sharmaji Ki Beti’ and R. Balki’s ‘Ghoomer’. She will also be seen in the new season of ‘Breathe: Into The Shadows’ and ‘Highway’, a south film co-starring Anand Deverakonda.

Over 70% of scenes from Nayanthara-starrer ‘O2’ will be inside a bus

Over 70 percent of the scenes in director Vignesh G S’ much-awaited upcoming thriller ‘O2’ featuring actress Nayanthara in the lead, takes place inside a bus.

The film, which is scheduled to have its worldwide premiere on June 17 on the OTT platform Disney+Hotstar, has raised expectations ever since its trailer was released.

The trailer gives away the fact that the film has several heart-pounding moments that are likely to give audiences an adrenaline rush.

A mother with her eight-year-old son gets stuck inside a bus after it suffers an accident. The kid, battling a chronic lung disorder, cannot survive without the aid of an oxygen cylinder. A cop, trapped inside the bus, also looks to get his hands on the oxygen cylinder to survive. How the mother deals with the situation and saves her son forms the crux of this story.

The story is set against the backdrops of hill regions that connect Tamil Nadu and Kerala.

Nayanthara plays the role of a mother named ‘Parvathy’, and Rithvik plays the eight-year-old son. Others in the star cast include Leena, late actor RNR Manohar, Aadukalam Murugadoss and Jaffer Idukki among others.

Sources say that Vignesh GS, a former assistant director to filmmaker Venkat Prabhu, wanted ’02’ to be his debut movie. They also reveal that as soon as Nayanthara heard the complete narration, she was impressed and instantly allotted dates for this movie. Besides, Dream Warrior Pictures decided to produce this movie only after listening to the complete narration as the producers felt it had a fresh and unique story premise.

Sources say 70 percent of the scenes in this movie will be completely inside the bus. Art director Sathees Kumar gave a realistic touch to each and every element that ensured to enhance the drama of this movie. This indeed helped the shooting to be completed on time as planned. The film, they claim, will enhance the stature of Tamil cinema in the context of top-notch technical works.
