Reel wrestlers Fatima and Sanya’s star struck moments with real wrestlers Geeta and Babita Phogat!

Dangal’s actresses Fatima Sana Shaikh and Sanya Malhotra will be seen essaying Geeta and Babita Phogat respectively in Dangal, which is based on the life of Mahavir Singh Phogat, who trained his daughters in wrestling and in a chat, Fatima and Sanya revealed about their first meeting with the Phogat sisters.

Fatima revealed, ''When we met Geeta and Babita for the first time, we were totally awestruck as we had read and heard a lot about them and had also seen their wrestling videos. However, when we met Aamir Khan, we were not really star struck as such.''

When questioned for the reason behind this, Fatima told, ''When we met Aamir sir for the first time, he did not look like Aamir Khan at all. He had put on weight and resembled a teddy bear than a film star, so it was not like meeting a celebrity at all.''


Directed by Nitesh Tiwari, Dangal, which also stars Sakshi Tanwar and Girish Kulkarni, is scheduled to release this weekend.
