Saiyami Kher of the 'Mirzya' fame has become the new replacement girl. She has currently been in the news for replacing Kriti Sanon in Nikhil Advani’s 'Lucknow Central', and now will also be replacing Alia Bhatt in Rajshree Ojha’s next.
While in 'Lucknow Central' Saiyami stars alongside Farhan Akhtar, in Rajshree's period drama she will be paired opposite Nawazuddin Siddiqui. Confirming the same, a source close to a leading daily revealed, "She is replacing Alia Bhatt in Rajshree Ojha’s period drama co-starring Nawazuddin Siddiqui. Alia was playing a Kashmiri girl in the film, but had to opt out because of date issues. Prior to this, Saiyami replaced Kriti Sanon in Nikhil Advani’s 'Lucknow Central' co-starring Farhan Akhtar. For Saiyami, being known as the replacement girl does not matter as these are good banners with meaty roles."
Both, Alia and Kriti have cited date issues to be the reason for their ouster from the films. But like the business says - one man's loss is another man's gain! And Saiyami is highly profiting from this.
