How Sonakshi Sinha got in shape for Salman?

Sunday, November 1, 2009

Not that Shatrughan Sinha has allowed Salman Khan to launch his daughter Sonakshi as a leading lady in Arbaaz Khan directorial Dabangg, the brawny star is taking his duty as the protective guardian very seriously.Thankfully for him, the burden of carrying the star-daugter on his able shoulders is much lighter now as Sonakshi has slimmed down from 90 kg to 60 kg. Salman has been giving her step-by-step advice on her career. He has not only advised Sonakshi to lose more weight, he has also told her not to do too many films at the same time.How did she manage to lose so much? “It took two years of hard work, determination and will power.

It was a combination of proper diet and vigorous exercise that got me to the shape, ” she says, “I did weight training four to five times a week along with cardio. I eat small meals every three hours to keep me going.”Sonakshi plays a village girl in the film and has been doing her homework to prepare for the character.”Other than working on my weight, I’ve been preparing by observing people and trying to pick up nuances. I play a village girl who is dabangg (fearless) in nature. Also, my director, Abhinav, and I have been rehearsing the script so that I am prepared once on the sets, “she tells.Dad Shhotgun is bowled over by Salman’s concern for her daughter. “Salman understands the way to work better than we did.

So we have full faith in him. He is making sure Sonakshi has the best possible launch. I allowed her to get into films on his persistence and Salman has taken upon himself the responsibility to make sure she emerges from her debut with our family name and her dignity intact, ” said Shatru. Sonakshi starts shooting for her debut film Dabangg on November 6 opposite Salman Khan.

Sonakshi Sinha finally Says Yes to Salman Khan

Saturday, June 20, 2009

Will she, won’t she? Shatrughan and Poonam Sinha’s daughter Sonakshi was offered a role by Salman in a film to be produced by Arbaaz Khan. But Sonakshi, apparently in two minds about a film career, decided not to do it. She had studied fashion designing and that’s what she wanted to pursue as a career. The girl hadn’t bargained for Salman’s persuasive powers. Apparently he kept asking Sonakshi and her parents (who are very fond of Salman) until they finally relented. And now Sonakshi has finally said yes to the untitled film which begins shooting in a couple of months. Says a source very close to the project, “Salman saw Sonakshi at the Fashion Week and told her to lose 10 kgs. Sonakshi decided to lose 30 kgs. And not by starving herself. She maintained a balanced diet, went to the gym regularly and embarked into water sports. Within no time she was stunningly slim.” That’s when Salman got doubly persuasive and that’s when Sonakshi relented. The film will be directed for Arbaaz Khan Productions by Anurag’s brother Abhinav Kashyap. This would be Arbaaz’s first production. Apparently the director went to Arbaaz to sign him an as an actor. Arbaaz offered to produce it. Says the proud father Shatrughan Sinha, “Acting was never on the cards for Sonakshi. But I remember as a child she was very cute and I had promised she would do an ad. This is perhaps a fulfillment of that promise. As long as she doesn’t compromise the dignity of our family I’ve no objections to her doing films.”
