When the casting started for Ghum they were looking out for the character of Sheen which was a Kashmiri girl as earlier my character’s name was Sheen, not Sai, they called me after watching my ‘Choti Sarrdaarni’ audition.

I had given two – three audition rounds for 'Choti Sarrdaarni' and Saket sir was the creative director. He really wanted to sign me, but they wanted a Punjabi girl, the way Nimrit Kair Ahluwalia is and she looks also like Punjabi hence I wasn’t signed there but they signed me for ‘Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin’.”

However, her talent and potential did not go unnoticed. Further in her response, she expressed her gratitude for being chosen to play the lead role in "Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin," emphasizing how the opportunity had been a turning point in her acting career.
