Actress Fatima Sana Shaikh, who is basking in the success of the recently released anthology Ajeeb Dastaans of which she is a part, recently opened up about a nasty incident when her father chased a man after he punched her.
Recalling the eve-teasing incident, the Dangal star, who announced a break from social media on Monday, said that when she noticed a man staring at her while she was on her way back from the gym, she comforted him and the two consequently engaged in a war of words before the man reached out and touched her face.

Ajeeb Daastaans is a curious bag indeed, if only for its utterly wicked entertainment quotient, and also because it is a rare film coming out of mainstream Bollywood that looks at love as anything beyond a sacrosanct sentiment.
