Career Milestones
At just 23 years old, Saiee made her film debut with a brief role as Kushi Damle in the Marathi film Kaksparsh in 2012. Her first leading role came in 2019 with Khushi Chautala in the Hindi action-comedy Dabangg 3 alongside Salman Khan.
In 2020, she appeared in the music video for the song “Manjha,” featuring Aayush Sharma. The following year, she made her Telugu film debut opposite Varun Tej in Ghani, which unfortunately did not perform well at the box office. Saiee continued to build her career with a role in the biographical action film Major, where she played Isha Agarwal, the love interest of Sandeep Unnikrishnan.
She was next seen in Kuch Khattaa Ho Jaay opposite Guru Randhawa. Most recently, Saiee featured in the Telugu action drama Arjun Son Of Vyjayanthi, directed by Pradeep Chilukuri. The film stars Nandamuri Kalyan Ram and Vijayashanti, alongside Saiee, Sohail Khan, Babloo Prithiveeraj, Srikanth, and R. Sarathkumar.
This film is a spiritual sequel to the 1990 movie Karthavyam, with Vijayashanti reprising her role as Kalyan Ram’s mother.
