Fatima Sana Shaikh opened up about a traumatic personal experience where she was slapped by a man she confronted for touching her inappropriately. “The shock of that moment will remain with me for as long as I live,” recalled Fatima, highlighting how unsafe public spaces can be for women.
Fatima Sana Shaikh teams up with Aneet Padda for hard-hitting Nyaya, tackles women’s safety: “I feel safe in the film industry”
However, she emphasized that her professional experience in the film industry has been positive. “I can’t speak for anyone else’s experience. I only know mine, and I’ve been fortunate to work with teams that have been respectful and professional. I feel our film industry today is much more self-aware. There are clearer boundaries, stronger rules in place, and conversations around safety and consent are being taken seriously. That’s a big step forward.”
In her upcoming project titled Nyaya, produced by Applause Entertainment, Fatima steps into a bold new role — that of a cop fighting tooth and nail to obtain justice for a 17-year-old rape victim, played by Saiyaara’s breakout star Aneet Padda.
Fatima shared her excitement about the project: “It is completely new territory for me. And the theme of women’s safety resonates deeply with me. I don’t want any girl to be slapped back when she hits out at a sexual offender.”
