I’m not scared of item numbers: Sonakshi Sinha
March 23rd, 2011 - 1:51 am ICT by IANS
Mumbai, March 23 (IANS) Actress Sonakshi Sinha wants to prove that she is truly “Dabangg” when it comes to her professional career. Brushing aside the rumours that she wants to refrain from doing item numbers, the actress came out saying that she is not scared of doing them.
The 23-year-old, who has shown her dancing expertise on stage at various award shows earlier this year, revealed that she has no problems in joining the lines of Katrina Kaif, Malaika Arora Khan and Mallika Sherawat by doing an item number, but she has to be comfortable in doing so.
“I’m not scared of doing item numbers. For me, when I did stage shows, I was wearing what I was comfortable in and the moves that I was doing were also what I was comfortable doing. So all depends on comfort. If what is offered to me, I’m comfortable doing that, then I might just take it up. I’m not averse to it,” Sonakshi told reporters here.
Sonakshi, the daughter of veteran actor Shatrughan Sinha, has laid down various rules for herself. She has been maintaining that she won’t be doing any kissing scenes in films and also won’t sport a bikini on screen ever.
Yet the budding actress has been getting plump Bollywood offers. After her debut film “Dabangg” with Salman Khan, the actress will be seen in “Joker” with Akshay Kumar and is also a part of “Race 2″.
At an event Tuesday, she was also named as the brand ambassador of fashion brand Provogue, that has had actors like Hrithik Roshan, Saif Ali Khan, John Abraham, Fardeen Khan and Katrina Kaif endorsing it in the past.
“I’m very happy to be associated with Provogue. I think they’ve seen how my career is shaping up and they think that I’m able to contribute to their brand in some way as a brand ambassador. So very happy about this association and hopefully it will be a long and fruitful one for both of us,” said Sonakshi.
