A dream debut and successful filmography, here is why Sonaskshi Sinha is so popular with her co-stars.
Sonakshi Sinha's dream debut opposite Salman Khan gave her a launch most actresses can only dream of but people were quick to dismiss her as a one-film wonder. Two years later, she is still going strong and has romanced superstars like Akshay Kumar, Ajay Devgn and Salman Khan. Despite not being endowed with the 'waif-thin' structure which most Bollywood heroines sport, she has a filmography most actors would envy in terms of box-office success. Many would point out that Sonakshi's mature looks make it difficult to pair her with younger heroes. But Sonakshi is nonchalant about this and says, "How many debutantes can boast of working with three of the country's biggest superstars in their first three films?"
Behind the scenes: Dabangg 2
With her latest film, she sticks to her tried-and-tested desi look which has always worked for her. The films she chooses mostly revolved around the macho superstars. However, she dismisses the thoughts of a well-calculated strategy behind doing masala movies opposite established stars. Coming from a filmi background, Sonakshi is no stranger to the workings of the film industry. She started her career as a model and walked the ramp at the Fashion Week 2008 and has designed costumes for movie 'Mera Dil Leke Deko' in 2005. That was before Salman Khan discovered her and packed her off to the gym and launched her opposite him.
Sonakshi: Superstar in the making
Her character in 'Son Of Sardaar' was that of an archetypal Punjabi girl. "She is modern, colourful, vibrant and has been brought up with middle-class Punjabi values," says Sonakshi. While you may wonder how different was it from her earlier release Rowdy Rathore or her forthcoming Dabangg 2, Sonakshi is quick to retort, "I don't choose my roles based on what clothes I am going to wear. If a role gives me an opportunity to be a part of a big film, then what's the harm? I am working with some of the best people in the industry."
Her striking resemblance to Reena Roy reminds people of yesteryear heroines who were not particularly thin. Not every producer is looking for a waif heroine and her desi girl image seems to be working well for the actor. After Rowdy Rathore, producer Viki Rajani has signed the successful combination of Sonakshi and director Prabhudheva for Namak while Milan Luthria is directing her in Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai sequel. In Dabangg 2, she pairs up yet again with Salman Khan and takes her character forward. In what way? We have to wait for that till 21st December.
Sonakshi's sizzling avatar
In Bollywood, an actor is as good as his or her last film. By that logic Sonakshi has done well, never mind her clothes. But this is definitely one sore point for the actress and she passes this catty comment, "When most heroines do role after role in mini-skirts, nobody asks them why they choose to do such roles, so it is a little strange that being an Indian girl, brought up with Indian values is questioned about my choice of clothes." Point to be noted!
