In the movie, Aamir Khan‘s character will be playing father to three daughters.
According to a report published in DNA, three actresses – Taapsee Pannu, Deeksha Seth and Akshara Hassan are being considered for the roles of wrestlers.
“Taapsee has shown great promise and Nitesh was bowled over by her performance in Baby. Playing the daughter to a wrestler Aamir, Taapsee’s character too needs to be agile and athletic. The amount of stunts she pulled off in Baby is commendable. She is the perfect choice”, according to DNA.
Though nothing is confirmed yet but the auditions for the role are on and the announcement is likely to be made soon.
‘Dangal’ is based on the life of wrestler Mahavir Phogat and his daughters – Geeta, Babita and Sangita. Mahavir along with Geeta and Babita also made an appearance on one of the episodes of Aamir’s Satyamev Jayate.
