Fatima Sana Shaikh clears the air around rumours of her dating Dangal co-star Sanya Malhotra

Fatima Sana Shaikh and Sanya Malhotra
Actress Fatima Sana Shaikh says she laughed off reports of her dating her Dangal co-star Sanya Malhotra. "We simply laughed about it. Just because we are good friends, they assumed the worst," she said, talking about the rumour. Asked about three things that she learnt from Sanya, Fatima said: "I have learnt a lot from her. For one, Sanya likes to keep everything clean. While she is an introvert and I am an extrovert, I learnt to hold myself back at times. I also learnt a lot from her dedication to work."
Talking about her diverse religious background and upbringing, the actress said: "It makes me feel like the ideal poster girl for secular India. The beauty of our country is that we are so diverse and all of us are okay with just being ourselves, follow our own religion and accept everybody."
