Dangal: Meet Fatima Sana Shaikh, the Girl Who Plays Geeta Phogat in The Film

Doesn't she look familiar?

Remember the girl who played Kamal Haasan and Tabu's daughter in Chachi 420? Fatima Sana Shaikh was all of five, when she made her screen debut in the film and managed to impress one and all. Almost a decade later, Fatima is making her debut as a lead actress in the much awaited Dangal.

The 24-year-old actress has appeared in films like Tahaan, Bittoo Boss and Akash Vani in the past, but Dangal will have her in a first full length role. Fatima will be playing Aamir Khan's daughter in the film. News has it that Fatima's role is based on wrestler Geeta Phogat's life. The Mithibai College alumni has literally transformed herself for the role by cutting her long hair and getting a leaner, athletic look. Her Facebook page have some stunning pictures of her. Here have a look. (Photos Via Facebook and Twitter)
