In her recent interview with PTI news agency, she said, “He is amazing and so good. It’s really good to work with him and he is so funny. The best part about Rajkummar is that he’s not only a great actor but he’s such a giving co-actor, truly.”

“He’s always there, he stands for cues, he’ll work with you. He is not somebody who just goes and sits in the van when he’s done. He works with you and that was such a joy,” she added.
Basu’s untitled crime-anthology film features four stories and one of them involves Rao and Fatima, who are paired for the first time. The film also features Abhishek Bachchan, Aditya Roy Kapur, Sanya Malhotra and Pankaj Tripathi.
Fatima, who is the face of the collection, said that she always understands the pressure of looking good, especially in times of paparazzi culture, but it doesn’t bother her.
“I don’t think about it too honestly. If you take the pressure off, you’ll feel it. All the gaps treat me well and I’ve never had a problem with them. So never bother me. Does or doesn’t get on my nerves. ”
Fatima said because she started her career as a child actor, she’s aware of how one is constantly under the spotlight in the industry.
She said, “I’m comfortable acting, but I’m not comfortable with everything that comes with it, like interviews, promotions. Sometimes it’s a struggle, sometimes it’s not. I’m a private person so I am still finding that balance, “she said.
In 2016, Fatima portrayed Indian freestyle wrestler, Geeta Phogat in the sports drama film Dangal which was screened at the Beijing International Film Festival, and second BRICS festival. She played Zafira Baig, a warrior-archer Thug in the epic action-adventure film, Thugs of Hindostan.
