Actress Fatima Sana Shaikh has strongly condemned Iraq's recent proposal to reduce the legal age of marriage of girls to just 9 years. She has given her reaction by calling this move terrible. Fatima shared the link to the news in Instagram Stories, whose title was, 'Iraq is planning to reduce the legal age of marriage for girls from 15 to 9 years.'

The actress reacted to this and wrote, "Uff! What does this mean." Actually, this bill presented in the Iraqi Parliament has created a lot of controversy and concern. It seeks to amend the Personal Status Law, which currently sets the minimum age of marriage at 18 years. This will allow citizens there to choose between religious or civil authorities for family matters.

Fatima got a lot of popularity from the 2016 film Dangal. In this film, she played the role of wrestler Geeta Phogat. Aamir Khan played the role of Mahavir Phogat in it. Fatima started her career as a child artist in the 1997 film 'Ishq'. Apart from this, she has worked in films like Thugs of Hindostan, Akashvani, Ludo, Sooraj Pe Mangal Bhari, Ajeeb Dastan, Dhak Dhak, and Sam Bahadur.
