She had a little girl in her arms. I was that child," shared Shaikh during an exclusive interview with Zoom. Asked if she has any special memories, she responded, "Yes, I have one very clear memory — of realising how films are not real.

Because when they were shooting that scene, first there was a stuntman. Then, to cheat the height, the camera went low and it was shot from the inside edge of the terrace. So as a child, I realised, 'Oh, this is how they cheat.' I understood it. It was a huge revelation for me. The illusion broke."

Fatima on what she learnt from Kamal HaasanThe actress was also in the iconic comedy flick Chachi 420. Recalling her time on the sets, she said, "He was just very loving as a person. I would also see him go through the whole process. So for me, understanding cinema happened very organically because I was a child actor. I was on set. I would see people doing makeup and everything, and then the shot taking… everything. I processed it very quickly."Currently, she's gearing up for Gutsaakh Ishq.
