New Delhi:
Bollywood actress Saiyami Kher makes the headlines again. No, it’s not for his recently released film Strangled but it’s something on similar lines. (read the Netflix connection). Recently, streaming giant Netflix shared a “leaked audition” video of the actress on her social media profiles and it goes incredibly viral (for all the right reasons). Hilarious video shows actress auditioning for popular Netflix shows like Sacred Games, Money Heist and Strange things. BTW, the video does not include footage from the actual auditions. The caption for the message shared by Netflix said, “Sarita and Saiyami were made for each other. #Choked #PaisaBoltaHai.”
Saiyami begins the video by auditioning for the role of crime lord Ganesh Gaitonde from Sacred games (which was played by Nawazuddin Siddiqui). Saiyami gave the lines a completely different connotation by replacing the explanations with the word “bhaisaab. “
Then she auditioned for the popular show Money Heist, where she sings (no points to guess) Bella ciao, in his own style. After that, the Mirzya actress auditioned for the character of Eleven from Strange things. After much ado, Saiyami finally landed the lead role in Anurag Kashyap Strangled And the rest is history.

Strangled open to stellar reviews from movie critics. In his review for GalacticGaming, film critic Saibal Chatterjee gave Strangled 4 out of 5 stars and wrote: “He promises deliverance while masking the constant growls that warn of impending chaos. He dances, sings and weaves circles around residents of a four-story building in Mumbai.”
