Fatima Sana Shaikh On Thugs Of Hindostan Debacle & New Year Hopes

Darpan News Desk IANS, 22 Dec, 2018 04:41 AM

    For the past couple of days, Fatima Sana Shaikh was cut off from the rest of the world. No, she wasn’t sitting at home and thinking about the failure of Thugs Of Hindostan (TOH), but living it up in the beautiful locales of Turkey.


    “It wasn’t a completely planned holiday. I just took off with my brother. It was a lot of fun, we met some lovely people out there,” she tells us.


    The vacation has done the actress a lot of good. With her second film, the massively-mounted extravaganza, TOH, failing to create an impact on the box office or on the minds of the audience, it was natural for the youngster to escape the negative reviews.


    “I wanted to get away from it for some time,” she admits, “Except for posting pictures on social media, I didn’t follow any other news. I am one of those who reads everything and watches everything, and I did do that for one week before heading for my holiday.”


    There were a lot of expectations from the Aamir Khan-Amitabh Bachchan starrer, but obviously, something did not go right with it.


    “Everybody has an opinion and you cannot reject the audience’s reaction. If they have not liked it, there must have been a reason. I can’t be upset with people. Life mein thoda move on kar lena chahiye,” she philosophises.
