Sonakshi Sinha and Akshay Kumar starrer Rowdy Rathore was released in 2012.
Sonakshi Sinha opened up about her scene with Akshay Kumar in Rowdy Rathore during an interview with Film Companion.
Sonakshi Sinha is very happy with the success of her recently released web series ‘Dahad’. The series is receiving positive reviews from the fans. Well, there is no doubt that the actress has come a long way in her career and is now very selective in reading scripts but this was not the case when she started her career. Recently, in an interview with Film Companion, she talked about her scene with Akshay Kumar in Rowdy Rathore.
In the film, there is a scene in which Akshay’s character grabs Sonakshi by her waist and declares, “Yeh mera maal hai (This is my property)”. Talking about the same, the Dabangg actor was quoted as saying, “Where I stand today, I would never do anything like that. I was so young at that time that I was not thinking in that direction. For me It was a fact that I am doing a film with Prabhu Deva, I am doing a film with Akshay Kumar. Who would say no to something like this? Sanjay Leela Bhansali was producing it. Why would I say no At that time my thinking was very different. Today if I would read such a script, I would not do it. Things change with time, I have also changed.’
Rowdy Rathore was released in 2012 and starred Akshay Kumar, Sonakshi Sinha in lead roles. Directed by Prabhu Deva, the film did average business at the box office.
She further added that women are easily blamed if a film doesn’t work but no one questions the director or the writer. “People always used to blame me and in such a situation the woman is always the villain. Nobody spoke about the writer who wrote the lines, nobody spoke about the person who directed the film. I was just like ‘shit happens, it’s okay’,” she said.
Coming back to Dahaad, the thriller series is about women being murdered by a serial killer. Sonakshi plays a cop role and has been assigned to investigate. Directed by Reema Kagti, it also stars Gulshan Devaiah, Sohum Shah, Vijay Varma, Manyuu Doshi, Yogi Singha, Sanghmitra Hitaishi, Ratnabali Bhattacharjee, Varad Bhatnagar, Nirmal Chiraniyan, Vijay Kumar Dogra, Abhishek Bhalerao, and Waris Ahmed Zaidi.
