If you’re still in shock about Aamir Khan’s extreme makeover for Dangal, you won’t believe the kind of work his young co-stars have put into the film. Sanya Malhotra (Babita Kumari), Fatima Sana Shaikh (Geeta Phogat), Zaira Wasim (young Geeta), Suhani Bhatnagar (young Babita) transformed themselves into wrestlers, in just a few months. That’s no ordinary feet. They braved past injuries, pain and hard work with a single agenda in mind- Dangal.
In this behind the scenes video, Dangal director Nitesh Tiwari, Aamir Khan and other crew members take us through the grilling challenges that the girls overcame to finish the film.
While this might be borderline crazy, one can’t ignore how dedicated the girls have been towards the film and their Bollywood debuts. Aamir Khan does manage to rub off his passion on those around him too.
Dangal hits theatres on 23 December.
