Fatima Sana Shaikh to sign for other project post TOH's release

Fatima Sana Shaikh debuted in Bollywood with Aamir Khan's Dangal. She is currently shooting for her next film, Thugs of Hindostan in Jodhpur. Fatima plays the central character in the film that also stars Aamir Khan, Katrina Kaif and Amitabh Bachchan.

As per a report in a leading daily, Fatima has been approached by multiple film-makers and has a bevvy of offers. However, she has not signed any other film.

"At the moment, the world is talking about debutantes like Janhvi Kapoor and Sara Ali Khan. But as soon as Thugs of Hindostan releases, Fatima, who had made a strong impact through her debut film Dangal, will surely have more projects lining up for her. With a mentor like Aamir Khan, she is sure to make the right choices. Someone like her should be getting multiple offers in a month, but it is all about waiting for the right films and making intelligent choices," a source close to the actor told a leading. daily.

Fatima played the role of Aamir's daughter in Dangal and will now reportedly be seen romancing the actor on-screen. About this, she had said, "I knew that people are going to think like this. I am an actor after all. Suppose if I hadn't acted in Dangal, and got an offer to act opposite Aamir sir, I would have, of course, said yes. Even today, if I am asked to act opposite Shah Rukh Khan, I would stand in the frame immediately. When you have grown up watching these stars and are fond of them, you would definitely want to work with them. I used to get disheartened and sad [when I heard such things], because I thought, Me playing his daughter in the film shouldn't be the reason for me not getting the part'. There have been so many instances of actors playing mothers, daughters and lovers. That's our job, and you keep playing different characters from different age groups. So, I don't have any issues."
