Moving on from the success of Dangal, Fatima Sana Shaikh is entering unknown territory with Abhishek Sharma's Suraj Pe Mangal Bhari. While currently in self-isolation, the actor reveals how she improved her comic timing on set.

Assuming that the genre would be fairly easy, Shaikh claims that it was a rude wake-up call on set when she met her expert co-stars. "Before the shoot, I had no inkling how spontaneous and natural one has to be to get the comic timing right. While reading the script, the line may not appear to have punches, but with the right reaction, the scene becomes funnier. I learned by watching Diljit [Dosanjh], Supriya [Pathak] and Annu Kapoor, who are champions in this genre."
