Niharika NM on Why Sai Pallavi Continues to Inspire Her

Turning to her latest release, Bhai Tera Star Hai, Niharika explained what drew her to the project. “I really liked the script. I found it very fun, and the cast and crew were also very fresh. It is a very young and new film. In today’s time, I feel the comedies that are coming out are not making that much of an impact. So, when I read the script as an audience member, I felt this was something I would genuinely enjoy. And if I like watching such films, I want to be a part of them. This is exactly that kind of film.”

She also spoke about working with co-star Raghav Juyal. “I had a lot of fun working with Raghav. It was fun both on-screen and off-screen. What you see in two or three seconds is basically stretched out for hours while shooting. Matching his energy in the scenes also pushes you to perform better because he brings so much energy to every moment. If the scene is written with that kind of energy, you have to match his pace and enthusiasm, and it turns out great.”

Directed by Vivek B. Agrawal, Bhai Tera Star Hai features Raghav Juyal, Sanjay Kapoor, Barkha Singh, Chandan Roy Sanyal, Vivan Bhatena, Niki Aneja Walia, Vikalp Mehta and others. The film was released in theatres on July 30, 2026.

Niharika’s comments reflect both her personal regard for established performers who balance craft with understated presence and her preference for comedy projects that prioritise freshness and audience enjoyment.
