Dangal, recently addressed misunderstandings stemming from her remarks about the South Indian film industry.
In a previous interview, Fatima recounted an unsettling experience where a casting agent asked if she was "
ready to do everything" for a role, which sparked controversy.

Her clarification aims to dispel any misconceptions and maintain goodwill between Bollywood and South Indian cinema communities.
Key quote: "I have deep respect for the South Indian film fraternity."
This incident highlights the challenges actors sometimes face during casting and the importance of clear communication to avoid misunderstandings in the film industry.
