Recalling his struggles and childhood traumas, Sai faced emotional turmoil and broke down.
Talking about his early childhood, Sai revealed his father abandoned the family, leaving them high and dry. He recalled, "After my dad left, mom faced harassment from her in-laws, as they used to question us a lot. But we grew out of it and fought back. My mom and I have gone through a lot together. During tough days, we even slept on railway tracks."
He further added, "Mom used to work multiple jobs to make ends meet while raising two kids. Slowly we grew financially, but it was a tough ride." Hearing his story, Chandrika and Deepak consoled him and told him not to feel saddened by his past but to be proud of where he has come now.
Not many know, Sai wanted to be a doctor at first, but due to financial crises, he couldn't afford the fees of a medical college, which made him switch to engineering. After completing engineering from a reputed college in Hyderabad, he started inclining towards acting.
Talking about it, he says, "My mom was initially against me acting as it is an unstable career. She wanted me to pursue an MBA and take a corporate job. It took me eight months to convince her, after which I went to film school in Hyderabad to kickstart my acting career."
