Fatima has a bigger role than Katrina in ‘Thugs of Hindostan’?

We can definitely call ‘Dangal’ a game-changer for Fatima Sana Shaikh, because for her, there’s no looking back now! Fatima has bagged Yash Raj Film’s ‘Thugs of Hindostan’ and has also completed a chunk of shooting as well. In fact, we hear her role will be bigger and meatier than that of co-star Katrina Kaif!

Not just ‘Thugs of Hindostan’, Aanand L Rai’s untitled film starring Shah Rukh Khan apparently also features her in a small role only. Therein, it is Anushka Sharma who has grabbed the heavier role!

“Fatima has a much bigger role in ‘Thugs’ compared to Katrina’s. Although her role is impactful, Kat doesn’t have enough screen time. Even in Aanand’s film, Anushka has a way meatier part than Kat. Anushka is the main heroine of the film,” a source told DNA After Hrs. (Also Read: Get Katrina Kaif’s casual chic looks under Rs 3000!)

Katrina’s last release was ‘Jagga Jasoos’. Although the film received warm response from critics, it didn’t do well at box office. We had earlier heard that she might also be a part of Rohit Shetty’s next, starring Ranveer Singh. However, Rohit later dismissed such claims.

“I am shooting in Hyderabad, I don’t know where this story has started coming from. Nobody has been approached for the role as of now.

I am busy with ‘Golmaal Again’ and we are simultaneously working on the ‘Temper’ remake. We won’t be approaching anyone till December and any news before that is fake,” he told Pinkvilla.

Kat also has ‘Tiger Zinda Hai’ coming up, for which she reunites with former beau Salman Khan on the big screen.
