Mumbai: In Bollywood, an industry perpetually buzzing with debates on ‘nepotism’ and the ‘outsider vs. insider’ dynamic, some faces manage to carve a niche based purely on talent and hard work. One such name is the young actress Sahher Bambba, who is now playing a pivotal role in ‘The Bastards of Bollywood’, the directorial debut of Shah Rukh Khan’s son, Aryan Khan. This is being hailed as the most significant turning point of her career so far.
Who is Sahher Bambba?
An actress with no ties to the film industry, Sahher Bambba has navigated a long journey to fulfill her dreams. Hailing from Shimla, Himachal Pradesh, Sahher completed her early education there. With a passion for acting since childhood, she began her career in modeling. She worked in several ad campaigns and soon caught the public’s eye with her radiant smile and impressive personality.
Bollywood Debut with ‘Pal Pal Dil Ke Paas’
Sahher got her first major break in 2019 when she was cast as the lead opposite Sunny Deol’s son, Karan Deol, in the film ‘Pal Pal Dil Ke Paas’. Although the film didn’t perform well at the box office, Sahher’s performance was appreciated. As a debutante, she made her presence felt and proved that she had the potential to shine on the big screen.
A Period of Struggle and Patience
It often takes time for new actors to land their next big break after their first film, and Sahher’s journey was no different. However, she did not lose patience and continued to work on her acting skills. During this period, she gave auditions, participated in workshops, and consistently tried to hone her craft.
Aryan Khan’s ‘The Bastards of Bollywood’ – The Game Changer
Now, Sahher Bambba has seized the opportunity to play a crucial character in the web series ‘The Bastards of Bollywood’, directed by Aryan Khan. The series is a satire on the inner workings of Bollywood, its nepotism, and the industry’s struggles. In the trailer, Sahher is seen portraying a star kid who is trying to establish herself but is confronted with the harsh realities of the industry.
Sahher’s character in the series is a significant part of the outsider vs. insider debate. Being an outsider herself, Sahher’s portrayal of such a character lends more authenticity to the narrative. This is not just a huge opportunity for her but also a testament to the fact that talent can come from any background, provided it gets the right platform.
For his very first project, Aryan Khan has placed his trust in a rising talent like Sahher. This could prove to be a game-changer for her career, giving her the recognition and opportunities she deserves.
