A look at Dangal girls’ Instagram profile will make you forget Aamir Khan for they are so full of life
There is less than a week's time for the release of Dangal and we hardly know about the two 24-year-old vivacious girls -- Fatima Sana Shaikh and Sanya Malhotra --who are making their big debut with Aamir Khan.

Had Dangal been the debut of a star kid, one would have known everything about that person by now. There is less than a week’s time for the release of Dangal and we hardly know about the two 24-year-old vivacious girls — Fatima Sana Shaikh and Sanya Malhotra –who are making their big debut with Aamir Khan.
Thanks to Koffee With Karan’s last episode, we got a glimpse of their personality that is bubbling with enthusiasm, confidence and something unique that only an outsider can carry. Karan Johar has already seen the film and was in awe of these two girls.” They are such raw actors. The way they have acted in a nuanced manner, only raw, untrained actors could have brought such credibility to those roles.”

And it would not be wrong to say that,l Fatima and Sanya did steal the limelight from the man of the moment, Aamir Khan, to some extent. Looking adorable in their pretty frocks, Fatima and Sanya radiated an exuberant energy and girly nervousness before the release of their big film. During the show, both revealed how they underwent a gruelling process of auditions and finally getting a role. For instance, Fatima didn’t even get an advertising offer during her three years of struggle. Sanya was luckier in that aspect.
Both revealed how they went on to become good friends during auditioning and shooting of Dangal. The level of comfort between Aamir Khan and two girls instantly became one reason to watch Dangal.
“We were called after auditions. And we were at Aamir’s house. We thought we have been rejected. So we thought we would better click pictures of Aamir’s house. So we started taking pictures of different parts of Aamir’s house. And then Aamir and Kiran came and told us- Fatima, you are Geeta and Sanya, you are Babita. Is that a way to tell you good news,” Fatima narrated how Aamir Khan told them about their roles in the film.
The curiosity made us look up Fatima and Sanya’s Instagram picture and we were blown away. A look at their pictures will tell you why only these two could have been a part of Dangal. Unlike their wrestler looks on screen, the two like to put on make-up, dance, travel, click lots of pictures and indulge in some quirky activities. What is similar between their on-screen and off-screen persona is the abundance of innocence and confidence that only an outsider can possess.
Fatima Sana Shaikh and Sanya Malhotra: Not your usual star kids
In these pictures, you can note there are no conscious selfies ( that you often find in a star’s Instagram profile) only an innocent charm, no ostentatious dose of style but just a hint of grace, travel diaries and a certain excitement that only a young person can have on the verge of making it big. You also cannot miss their pictures with Aamir Khan and the Dangal team.
