Bollywood actress Sayani Gupta has given fans a glimpse into her character transformation for her upcoming project ‘Khwabon Ka Jhamela.’ In a recent Instagram post, the actress is seen sporting a vibrant bob wig styled after music artist Sia, showcasing the behind-the-scenes process of her character development.
Behind The Scenes Transformation
The Instagram video shows Sayani in her character ‘Ruby,’ with a distinctive neon bob hairstyle that’s drawing comparisons to singer Sia’s iconic look. Shot by hair stylist Palomi Shah (who goes by the handle @paloshell), the video captures the playful essence of the character’s vibrant appearance.
The transformation was a team effort with makeup by Sital (tagged as @sitalmakeup) and styling by Deep (tagged as @doyoulovedeep). The post’s caption reads, “Ruby giving @siamusic 🥵 @sayanigupta,” highlighting the inspiration behind the distinctive look.
The video appears to be part of the production process for ‘Khwabon Ka Jhamela,’ which is set to release on JioCinema, as indicated by the hashtags in the post. The series is currently in production, with this behind-the-scenes footage offering fans an early peek at what’s to come.
The Distinctive Ruby Look
This isn’t the first time Sayani has shared glimpses of her character Ruby. In a previous post from the same production, she described the look as “Oooof. Ruby in a neon bob. 🥵❤️🔥,” suggesting this vibrant appearance is central to her character’s identity.
The neon bob is quite a departure from Sayani’s usual look, featuring bright colors and a geometric cut that creates an eye-catching visual for her character. The styling team has clearly put significant effort into creating a memorable aesthetic that seems to be an essential part of Ruby’s persona in the upcoming series.
Sayani Gupta has built an impressive career in both mainstream and independent cinema. Born on October 9, 1985, in Kolkata, West Bengal, India, she is an alumna of the prestigious Film and Television Institute of India (FTII).
Her career began with a role in the film ‘Second Marriage Dot Com’ in 2012, but her breakthrough came with Margarita with a Straw (2014), where her performance received critical acclaim. She gained wider recognition for her performances in films like ‘Fan’ (2016) alongside Shah Rukh Khan, ‘Jolly LLB 2’ (2017), and ‘Article 15’ (2019).
Sayani has also made significant inroads into the digital space, starring in popular series like ‘Inside Edge’ and ‘Four More Shots Please!’ Her versatility as an actress has allowed her to take on varied roles across different genres and formats.
Recent Professional Endeavors
Beyond ‘Khwabon Ka Jhamela,’ Sayani has been keeping busy with various professional projects. Recently, she participated in a special interview series called ‘Reel to Real,’ where she discussed her unapologetic approach to life and career. The episode highlighted her authentic personality and commitment to living life on her own terms.
She has also been involved in high-profile fashion campaigns, including a recent collaboration with Torani India for their Juloos collection celebrating Durga Pooja. The campaign, which featured Sayani in traditional attire, showcased her versatility as both an actress and model.

‘Khwabon Ka Jhamela’ On Jiocinema
While details about ‘Khwabon Ka Jhamela’ remain limited, the hashtags in Sayani’s posts indicate it will be available on JioCinema’s OTT platform. The series appears to be in production in London, based on location tags in related posts.
The character of Ruby, with her distinctive neon bob, seems to be a central figure in the storyline. The vibrant, unconventional styling suggests the show may have a contemporary, possibly quirky aesthetic that sets it apart from conventional Indian content.
With its release on JioCinema, ‘Khwabon Ka Jhamela’ will join the growing roster of Indian OTT content that continues to push creative boundaries in storytelling and visual presentation.
