Indian actress Saiyami Kher said that her upcoming film inspired by legendary actress Nargis Dutt is a dream because it is in black and white.
The team released monochrome pictures of Saiyami in a look inspired by Nargis' character from the 1958 film Lajwanti. She was seen wearing a simple cotton saree with a bindi and plaited hair.
She added that Nargis Dutt is a legend and just mere comparison with her is the biggest compliment. "It feels like such an honour. She was just perfect in any form, be it acting, beauty, or grace."
"I have loved most of her movies. Shree 420, Aag, and Mother India are my favourite. I always wonder how it would have been to live in that era and do films then. I love black and white pictures and films. It's actually a dream for me to do a film which will be black and white," said the actress.
The Anurag Kashyap production is not yet titled.
Saiyami Kher was last seen in the Telugu film Highway. She has a busy call sheet in 2022 with Rahul Dholakia's Agni, Breathe: Into the Shadow Season 3, and R Balki's Ghoomer.
