After WRESTLING now Fatima Sana Shaikh to learn SWORDFIGHTING in Thugs Of Hindostan!

Dangal actress Fatima Shaikh has gone from wrestling to another sport, which involves fighting with an opponent. For Aamir Khan-starrer Thugs Of Hindostan, the actress will learn sword fighting. Says a source, “The script of TOH required two actresses — a raw, rough-and-tough Indian girl who is part of Aamir’s gang of thugs and in love with his character and a beautiful British lady with whom Aamir’s character falls in love with. While the Indian girl will be played by Fatima, Katrina Kaif plays the British girl. Director Vijay Krishna had said that the role of the girl is pivotal to the film and Fatima was a ‘gifted performer of action’. Fact is, Fatima will learn how to be a skillful sword-fighter in the film as her role is action-oriented.” We might soon see her becoming the go-to person for all female action roles.
