Saaya

Trailer

The Movie and Me

A supernatural mystery directed by Anurag Basu.
Produced by Mahesh Bhatt.

I played Akash, a doctor plagued by strange visions after his wife's death.

When malaria strikes near the Burmese border, Akash's doctor wife Maya rushes to help, but the bus she is traveling in crashes into a river during heavy rains and she is reported drowned. Unable to accept the news of her death, Akash begins to have paranormal experiences, as if Maya's ghost is trying to communicate with him. As he struggles with his sanity, the same strange symbol keeps recurring again and again. What can it mean?

"Saaya deals with loss, emotions and internal love. The idea behind it was not to scare the audience, but to drive home the message that one might lose someone, but internal love lives forever."
