A Woman Of Characters

BABITA PHOGAT 

Dangal, 2016 

Apart from being emotionally overwhelmed to be part of such a big project and scared of losing the opportunity, it was physically challenging to become Babita Phogat. It was a biopic, so there would be comparisons and we had to be extra cautious about getting the body language right. Wrestling is a very difficult sport and although I am seen wrestling on screen for just about a minute, I trained for a good eleven months. While training, both Fatima and I had multiple injuries, my knees were gone, but we would initially not tell the production people or the ADs that we were hurting. But eventually they got us physiotherapists both on sets and off it. Also, I was very harsh on myself while shooting the movie. Working with Aamir Khan wasn’t challenging at all. When he met us at the audition, I could not recognise him; he weighed about 110 kg and was already looking every bit the part — we didn’t meet Aamir Khan the star, we met Mahavir Phogat. But what he did with that role, the way he transformed into the character, became a lesson. Working on Dangal and with Aamir Khan became a conditioning whereby I never reach a set without doing my homework.
