Interestingly enough, Namita had not appeared for any audition for the film. As it so happened, the filmmakers of Dangal wre present during a recent national wrestling championship in Delhi where Namita was the referee. The makers screened her at the spot and selected her for the role. Namita who is now a national coach was completely stumped when she received a surprise phone call and an air ticket from Aamir Khan on Sunday.
The call also included an invitation for her to shoot for the film at the Indira Gandhi Stadium in New Delhi on Tuesday.
