At last Sonakshi is ready to have a blast. Having played a string of delicate feminine very Indian roles, Sonakshi will now be cast in Prabhu Dheva’s Namak in her first full-fledged action role.
The film, an intense love story with a violent backdrop, would be a new beginning for director Prabhu Deva.
Says a friend of Prabhu, “He is scripting Namak. This would be his first effort at screenplay writing. The girl’s part has been written especially for Sonakshi.”
Says our source, “During Rowdy Rathore, Prabhu Deva and Sonakshi really hit it off. When he was shooting the ‘Govinda‘ song with Sonakshi for OMG! Oh My God, Prabhu mentioned to Sonakshi that watching her agile dance steps he was sure she would make a terrific action heroine. He told her about the girl in Namak who doesn’t just stand behind the hero biting her lips and wringing her hands, but actually has her own action plan. Sonakshi was immediately game.”
Her excitement comes from the fact that so far all her films have featured her as a demure, sweet angelic desi girl.
Apparently, since both Shahid and Sonakshi would be kicking serious ass in Namak, Prabhu Deva has put them both under joint physical training.
