After starring together in
Rowdy
Rathore, Sonakshi Sinha is set to be seen opposite Akshay
Kumar again in
Joker.
The actress says she is lucky that the Bollywood
superstar is working with a newcomer like her.
The 25-year-old actress is all set to make a hattrick
with Akshay with the shooting of
Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai
2 all set to kick-start this month.
"I consider myself lucky that a superstar like Akshay has
shown good interest in working with a newcomer like me. He
showed confidence in me when I was just one film old
(
Dabangg). He was convinced that I was the right choice for
Joker and
Rowdy Rathore.
"When someone as seasoned as him is confident about your
acting capabilities, you do get all the more motivated. For me
as an actress, it is an amazing prospect to work with Akshay.
After all, not many newcomers get that opportunity and here I
am doing three films with him," Sonakshi told PTI.
Besides multiple projects with Akshay Kumar in her kitty,
Sonakshi has also bagged a film each with Ajay Devgn, Salman
Khan and Ranveer Singh.
Shirish Kunder's
Joker is a new experience for her
courtesy the film's sci-fi and alien setting.
"It is really cool to be a part of such a fantastical
setting. I like reading sci-fi books and watching films
belonging to this genre. So when
Joker came my way, it was
automatically exciting.
"There were different kind of sets that were created and
for me, it is a very nice and different experience when
compared to the other films that I have done or am doing. The
film's very uniqueness is its USP," said Sonakshi.
She is starring with Ajay Devgn in
Son of Sardaar, the
promo of which is playing all over and meeting with good
response from the audience.
"Making the film was hard work but then also a very
enjoyable experience. There was a certain feel-good element
while filming it. Now with the audience too experiencing the
same, compliments have been coming in quite incessantly."
