Though Sanaya Irani had already made her Bollywood debut with Aamir Khan and Kajol's Fanaa (2006), where she played one of Kajol's friends, it wouldn't be wrong to say that it was a blink-and-miss role. Nevertheless, her recent film Ghost, directed by Vikram Bhatt, marked Sanaya's Bollywood outing as the lead actress.
Talking about working with Vikram Bhatt, Sanaya said, "I was working with Vikram on a web series, where he was my co-actor, he must have thought at that time my work was good. I was thinking about the story of Ghost first, I wanted to do something interesting. I found it very interesting since it was based on a real incident."
Ghost released on October 18, 2019, in cinemas. Sanaya Irani played a lawyer in the film.
