Aamir Khan's Two Daughters In Dangal Movie

As we already updated that Aamir Khan’s next movie is Dangal and the film unit is looking for female leads to play daughter roles. Finally  Fatima Sana Shaikh and Sanya Malhotra  have been roped for female actors to play Aamir Khan’s daughters in the film ‘Dangal’

Sanya, right in the photo is a Delhi based girl and a trained ballet dancer. She’s appeared in an advertisement. Fatima left in the photo is based in Mumbai and worked as a child artist in the movie ‘Chachi 420’ and was also seen in the movie ‘Bittoo Boss’ and  ‘Dangal’ will be the first film to cast her in a substantial role.

‘Dangal’ will be shot from September to December this year. Then Aamir will take a four month break to lose a lot of weight to play a younger version of himself in the same film. The last shoot will happen in May next year and will have Aamir playing a 27-year-old young man and its schedule for release around Christmas in 2016.

'Dangal' is based on the life of the Haryana wrestler Mahavir Phogat, who went against the convention and tradition to teach wrestling to his two daughters, Geeta and Babita Phogat. The daughters did their father proud when Geeta became the first Indian wrestler to win gold at 2010 Commonwealth Games. Babita won the silver medal.

Aamir Khan who will essay the role of Mahavir, says 'Dangal' is not just about wrestling. It’s an inspiring story about father-daughter relationship and a tale of women empowerment.
