It is a rare feat for an actor to simultaneously dominate both the silver screen and the digital realm. Sai Tamhankar, however, finds herself in this enviable position with her Marathi film Sridevi Prasanna captivating cinema audiences while her Netflix release Bhakshak asserts its dominance in the thriving OTT space. Sai’s dual success underscores her versatility as an actor and her ability to connect with audiences across different platforms.
Sai Tamhankar says she feels “dignified, blessed and proud” to be a part of Bhakshak; shares thoughts on Bhumi Pednekar-starrer
“When you make a film, you don’t really know or cannot predict its fate or how people are going to respond to it. But every time you attempt something different as an actor, you feel the energy. Bhakshak was one of those projects. While shooting, we felt that we wanted to say something important,” Sai shares.
The movie, which sees Sai portraying a no-nonsense SSP officer alongside Bhumi Pednekar’s character, a fearless journalist, delves into the disturbing reality of rampant child abuse in a shelter home in Bihar. Sai emphasizes the significance of using cinema as a medium to initiate crucial conversations and shed light on pressing social issues.
“After the movie release, I felt the same energy and emotions from the audience who appreciated the conversation that we wanted to start through Bhakshak. At least, we awakened something within us that had either been lost or forgotten, and the audience resonated with that. It is very rare for an actor to be a part of projects that go beyond box office collections. I feel dignified, blessed and proud,” she adds.
“Sometimes, when you attempt things for the first time or try to break barriers, you are looked down upon by others. Films like Bhakshak help regain that dignity. I feel blessed and on top of the world because my Marathi film is also doing very well in theatres, and this one is also breaking walls in the OTT space,” Sai concludes.
Sai Tamhankar’s success with Sridevi Prasanna and Bhakshak exemplifies her prowess as an actor who seamlessly transitions between cinema and OTT space, cementing her status as an accomplished performer and a force to be reckoned with.
