Sonakshi Sinha on the Big 'Ban' Theory and Playing Dawood's Sister

Sonakshi Sinha photographed at a studio in Mumbai.

Actress Sonakshi Sinha said, "In my line, a picture speaks more than a thousand words so have to be smart with social networking." She was speaking at an event to launch a phone at the Zen Festival in New Delhi.

So how 'Zen' like is she? "Very. I am so charged up," said the Dabangg star.

This is her take on the current ban scenario, where anything and everything seems to be on a mission to get banned: "I don't understand it at all. Just ban us only; you need to give people that much freedom to decide what's right and wrong for them."

Sonakshi played Dawood Ibrahim's love interest (in Ekta Kapoor's Once Upon Ay Time in Mumbai Dobaara) and is now playing the role of the Don's sister Haseena Parkar in another biopic. She said, "Yes, am very excited. I had promised my fans I will do different types of roles. So you have me in Akira, then you have me playing Haseena, an agent in Force 2 and there is a love story, so something different."

"I liked the narrative of Haseena's character so couldn't say no," she added.

Talking about her recent Instagram picture onboard the Mumbai local, Sonakshi said, "It was a short scene and late at night, but I was so excited to board it. Memories of college came rushing back."
I did Jab We Met with Kareena many years ago, and now I'm doing Shaandaar with Alia. The only common aspect is that I am doing a love story. But other than that, I think both are phenomenal actors. Both of them are fantastic in their own ways," he added.
The Haider actor also spoke about how Alia agreed upon Udta Punjab in just two days despite the film's dark subject. Directed by Abhishek Chaubey, Udta Punjab also features Kareena apart from Shahid and Alia.
"I think Alia has her own journey, making some brave decisions. In the past 15-20 years, I haven't seen any other actress taking such brave decisions," said Shahid.
Produced by Phantom Films and Karan Johar's Dharma Productions, Shaandaar has been directed by Vikas Bahl, who had previously directed 2014 film Queen.
Bollywood actor Shahid Kapoor said that it is an achievement for Alia Bhatt to be compared to Kareena Kapoor Khan.
At the trailer launch of his upcoming film Shaandaar, when Shahid was asked about the similarities between Alia and Kareena, he said: "First of all, it's a big compliment for Alia that she's compared to Kareena, since she's an extremely established actress and has done some notable work. I don't see any similarity between the two, since I feel Alia is an original actress and so is Kareena."
