Ealier, a picture of Fatima saw the actress wearing a saree which created further anticipation about her character.
Talking about bagging the role for this Anurag Basu's film, Fatima Sana Shaikh said: "As soon as I heard that he [Basu] was making a movie, and was interested in [casting] me, I was excited. I didn't care about the script. There are some directors whose worlds you simply wish to be part of," adding that apart from Basu, Rajkumar Hirani and Sanjay Leela Bhansali's offerings are those she would "shut my eyes and say yes to."
This film also features Abhishek Bachchan and Rajkummar Rao. Apart from rough, rustic roles that she played in Dangal and Thugs of Hindostan, Fatima will be seen in a different avatar.
