Sonakshi Sinha reveals how she ended up bagging a role opposite Salman Khan

Sonakshi Sinha is gearing up for the release of her upcoming film ‘Khandaani Shafakhana’. Directed by Shilpi Dasgupta, the film is a comedy-drama that also features Varun Sharma and rapper Badshah. As the film is scheduled to release this Friday i.e August 2, Sonakshi is now on a promotional spree.

The actress appeared on ‘The Kapil Sharma Show’ and it was there when she recalled how Salman Khan offered her a role in his film.

We all know Sonakshi underwent a terrific physical transformation before making her Bollywood debut. The actress worked hard on her body and lost oodles of weight. Now, as per a report in Mumbai Mirror, the actress recalled how Salman casually approached her for a film.

Reminiscing, Sonakshi revealed that back then, she was working as an audience manager in a fashion show. Interestingly, Salman was also present in the audience. “He strolled up to me and suggested I lose weight as he was looking forward to casting me in his movie,” Sona shared.

After offering her a film, Salman even asked Sonakshi for a treat. But Sonakshi had only Rs. 3000 in her wallet and hence, she was embarrassed to ask him out. Nine years down the line, Sonakshi has established herself as a wonderful actress in the film industry.

The actress is all set to share screen space with her mentor Salman all over again in the third installment of their hit film ‘Dabangg’.
