I don't think I could've asked for a better way to celebrate my birthday. The greatest gift that an actor can ever get is he or she is getting work. I want to work and I'm happy doing that."

Furthermore, she adds, "I want to be on a film set every day of my life. I just want to keep getting more and more work" she shares her Birthday wish. Fatima's next project is Bhoot Police, which is a horror-comedy where the actress is experimenting with the genre and trying her hands exploring her craft.
