Actor Fatima Sana Sheikh recently expressed her view on love and relationships. He also talked about navigating modern dating challenges and relationships in a special interview with India today.

What did Fatima love on her, who loves her-on-screen and surrender to close and love why still hold a holy place in her heart. He said, “I don’t think love has changed. It is still equally special. We often say that we do not want commitment, but deeply, we want a partner. We want to surrender, because this is love. I know that I would like to surrender in love, how to love.”

Accepting the emotional disconnect in today’s world, the actor further said, “We are not going out anymore. We live inside, see the material alone, and that community spirit is missing. We still meet people?”

However, Fatima insisted that carving for connections could again push people back to social places. “I have started playing paddle, and through it, I have created new friends. So maybe, now, when you meet new people, something can happen. There is a possibility again,” she left.

‘Metro … In Dino’ actor also shared about his experiences with dating apps. “Yes, I have been on tinder and luggage. But people get strange. They don’t know what to say. I have gone to dates with people who are not from industry – this is a completely different world. Therefore, to understand that feeling or complexity that passes through a public person, you need a very secure and a sorted man,” said Fatima.

Asked if it is easy or difficult to pretend to be in love on screen, especially when there is a single, the actor said, “Romantic views are not easy. But honestly, nothing. Nothing. Is it action, anger, or love – if you are not feeling it truthfully, it will not just show it. You have to believe it.”

He further said, “The moment you fake it, the audience will know. The camera holds everything; it is an intimate relationship, unlike the theater, where there is a distance between the artist and the audience. Here, every expression shows. If you are insecure, it will appear. If I am feeling something, it will show it. So, yes, yes, yes, any feeling is very difficult to achieve.”

Fatima was last seen in ‘Aap Jaisa Koi’ (2025), unlike R Madhavan, streaming on Netflix.

He also played an important role in Anurag Basu’s ‘Metro … in Dino’, which was co-interacted by Ali Fazal, Aditya Roy Kapoor, Sara Ali Khan, Anupam Kher, Neena Gupta and others. The film was released on July 4, 2025.
