Fatima Sana Shaikh, last seen in, Thugs of Hindostan, is reportedly being considered to be cast opposite Shah Rukh Khan in Anurag Basu’s Salute. This comes just a few days after the Dangal actress confessed about her love for King Khan. Reportedly, “The makers are still on a hunt for the leading lady. Fatima too is being considered for the role. They seem to be quite impressed with her performances and she is one of the leading contenders for it.” The actress had recently revealed in an interview that if there’s one person in the industry that she gets nervous around, that’s Shah Rukh Khan. Salute will see SRK in the role of Rakesh Sharma, the Air Force officer turned astronaut, the first Indian to travel to space. The film is expected to go on floors from February.
