As Aryan Khan gets ready to make his directorial debut with The Ba****ds of Bollywood, one name that is generating buzz is the show’s leading lady, Sahher Bambba. Although she is not entirely new to the screen, she is still building her recognition. Here’s all you need to know about Sahher Bambba.
Sahher Bambba’s Life
Sahher Bambba was born in Shimla, Himachal Pradesh. Born to Sunil Bambba and Shilpa Bambba, Sahher is currently 26 years old. Sahher is a trained Kathak dancer, and she loves Bollywood dance numbers, which she would recreate at home.
According to idiva, she even convinced her parents to let her study in Mumbai instead of Delhi. While they were hesitant initially, they let Sahher follow her dreams.
Sahher Bambba’s Mumbai journey had humble beginnings—sharing a hostel room with eight other girls and navigating auditions with determination. Her first breakthrough came in 2016, when she won the Bombay Times Fresh Face contest, a title that opened doors, connecting her with casting opportunities.
That led to her first film, Pal Pal Dil Ke Paas (2019), directed by Sunny Deol and co-starring Karan Deol. She portrayed a Delhi vlogger falling in love during a solo trekking trip—standing out despite being a newcomer and chosen from over 400 auditioning girls.
Post-debut, Sahher expanded into streaming platforms: She appeared in the historical drama The Empire on Disney+ Hotstar, taking on the role of Maham Begum. In Dil Bekaraar (Disney+ Hotstar), she played Debjani Thakur in this adaptation of Anuja Chauhan’s beloved novel.
Her most recent work was The Miranda Brothers, released on JioCinema in October 2024, opposite Harshvardhan Rane.
Sahher has also appeared in the music video Ishq Nahi Karte.
