Fatima Sana Shaikh who first shot to fame after starring in 2016's Dangal opposite Aamir Khan, has now said that she has no qualms about dropping a text to filmmakers and other people in the industry and approaching them for work. “I do that to remind people that I exist. I don’t do a lot of films, so I am not always there. Kabhi kabhi log casting mein bhool jaate hain ki yeh bhi actor hai. It is very important to hustle. Until and unless you don’t fight for your space and your positioning, no one else will. If I have to call and remind someone that I am there and I don’t mind auditioning, it’s okay. It’s not a bad quality to have," she told a leading daily.
"I like to create opportunities for myself and just not sit at home and wonder mere paas kaam kyun nahin hai. Aapko mehnat karni padegi aur kaam mangna padega,” she added. Fatima was last seen in Ludo, Suraj Pe Mangal Bhari and Ajeeb Dastaans. “Many people from the industry reached out. It’s always special when people from industry appreciate your work as it gives you validation and hope. But, also the audiences’ response matters, who are the king and if they don’t like your work, it is game over," she said about the reaction she received to her role in Ajeeb Daastans.
