Sonakshi Sinha Wasn't Too Keen On Signing Salman Khan Starrer Dabangg Reveals Shatrughan Sinha

Actress Sonakshi Sinha dropped fashion designing to debut in Bollywood with a solid punch. The actress who played Salman Khan’s fiery love interest Rajjo in Dabangg has come a long way since and has proven to be a certified pro in both action and drama films.

Sonakshi’s father Shatrughan Sinha, however, revealed that when the actress was first offered Dabangg by Salman Khan she wasn’t really keen on it. The veteran Bolllywood star tells ETimes that the actress wanted to focus on her career in fashion designing.

Shatrughan's reply came after he was asked what acting advice did he give Sonakshi when she entered movies and it turns out his first suggestion to her was to actually consider Salman’s offer and take up the film.

“I have never differentiated between my sons and daughters. Her first offer 'Dabangg' came from Salman Khan with tremendous respect. I remember Sonakshi was not very interested in it back then as she was doing a course in fashion designing- but I told her to consider it. All I told her was to prove herself to be better than the best and different from the rest,” the veteran Bollywood star told the publication.

Well, that’s some live changing advice we are sure Sonakshi doesn’t regret considering.
