Sonakshi Sinha is now coming with her fourth big banner and big star cast movie ‘Son of Sardar’, the actress opened up her feelings as to her new film and to her career so far.
Is it a different experience doing a Punjabi background film? Yes, of-course! When you do Punjabi background film, it is very happening; I had a lot of fun on set. Every day of shooting Son of Sardar is memorable; we shot in all seasons in Punjab. I loved Punjabi culture, Punjabi people, they are very co-operative and big hearted.
How was it working with Director Ashwni Dhir? Oh! My Director is fabulous, very nice and very talented. Because he is too a Punjabi guy, it was easy to understand the character from him. I got it easier to perform the role. Really it was wonderful to have worked with him.
Becoming the Punjabi girl, was it a quite difficult? No, not such, I mean I just loved my character of Jiya who is more talkative and happy go lucky girl. It was a different experience to be a Punjabi Kudi but I enjoyed every bit of character, it will be one of favorite character I have played.
You ride a bike, that too Ajay Devgan trained you . . .Oh yes, I have taken proper one month training for bike riding, he (Ajay) taught me some part. I learnt for one month while shooting. I did some stunt for the first time, I informed my Mom later. Thankfully, my mom wasn’t there when I was doing stunts otherwise she would have never allowed me to do any.
So can we say Son of Sardar is full fresh Action film? No, not exactly because this film has every kind of ‘Masala’, there is action, drama, emotions, comedy everything . . . it is a typical commercial Action-Romance film.
Action-Romance films has so far worked for you, so will you be in the Box now? So far so good such films are working I won’t be having any problem doing Action-Romance. These films have reallyturned profitable for me and I feel happy that I have been a part of such films. But that doesn’t mean I will be in a box, no way . . . I m even coming with verities, there is Once Upon a Time with Emraan Hashmi and Lootera with Ranveer Singh. Lootera role is something that I haven’t done so far, it’s very emotional and touchy. I have put lot of efforts for Lootera.
So far you have played ‘Desi’ girl type roles, so now are you open for some glamour’s roles? I think my audiences have appreciated me for whatever roles I have done they like it. I have no complaints for roles I m doing. I don’t choose my roles on what the character has to wear, if I like the role and the script I go for it. If I get a character where I have to wear western clothes and if I m comfortable wearing it, I will do it.
Do you feel pressure of success? Oh! God, if I think so much and take pressure of success and all, my brain will blast. (Laugh) I just do my work, when it get appreciated, I feel happy. I do care about the expectations that others have from me but I never take any pressure of responsibilities.
How you choose the film? Simply if I like the role and script and yes of-course when I choose the film, it is combine decision which include advice and guidance of my parents because they are more experienced than me.
Are you disappointed with joker's failure? Yes, of-course, I mean everyone who is connected with the film would feel bad if the film doesn’t work. But nevertheless I treat my success the way I treat my failures and now I have moved on working on my next films.
