Saiee Manjrekar opens up about the pressures of being a star kid; says she works 'extra hard'

Saiee Manjrekar is currently basking in the success of her recent release, Major. The film has been garnering positive response at the box office and audiences have been loving her performance in it. The actress, who made her Bollywood debut with Dabangg 3 (2019) alongside Salman Khan recently opened up about the pressure of being a star kid.

Saiee stated in an interview that she strives to make her father Mahesh Manjrekar proud. She said, I don’t take it as pressure. Instead, it’s more like motivation to put in more effort. I just have one thing in my mind — that I should make my dad proud every step of the way. He has done so much good work so I wish to keep his head high always. I want people to say Saiee is his daughter with pride.”

As a star child, she recognises that she is under the scanner. "See, I was born and brought up seeing all of this so I have never taken it as a pressure element. This is something that I don’t need to tackle but to accept and just continue to give my best. I know I will be under a scanner so I work extra hard! Acting is something I have always wanted to do and had a dream debut (opposite Salman Khan) as it came as a great opportunity for me and I can just be grateful for that," concluded the 23-year-old actress.
