Kubbra Sait became widely known after her performance in Sacred Games (2008). She then appeared in several films and web series, including Apple TV+'s international show Foundation (2021). However, not many know about her journey before Sacred Games. She opened up about it in her autobiography, 'Open Book: Not Quite A Memoir' and also revealed how Sonu Sood helped her during her early days in Mumbai.

Kubbra Sait stated in the book that she used to work for Microsoft in Dubai and in November 2008, she decided to head to Mumbai for a photoshoot. She was all set to go when she heard about the 26/11 attacks. In panic, she cancelled the ticket and informed photographer Munna S about it. Munna, however, insisted that she shouldn’t cancel her trip. He advised her, “Nothing stops here. Tu ruki, to peechey chhoot jayegi.” Kubbra said that she saw merit in his viewpoint and re-booked the ticket though she had to pay double the price.

In another chapter of the book, she wrote about how she got acquainted with Munna S, one of the top photographers at that time. This was possible thanks to Sonu Sood. She had worked with him in an Emirati film, City Of Life (2009), which also starred Sonu. Sonu asked Munna S to do Kubbra Sait’s photoshoot and also requested him to give her a discount.

Sonu Sood’s plea worked as Munna S gave her a steep 55% discount, but with conditions. Kubbra Sait wrote, “I am telling you, connections work everywhere. From a steep Rs. 1 lakh for sixteen photos, Munna said he would be happy to shoot ten photos for Rs. 45,000.”

The photoshoot was done and a week later, she received the photos. However, she said that her pictures were photoshopped. Kubbra wrote, “My waist was more tapered, my cleavage was also a bit enhanced, and my skin was clear.”
