Sonakshi Sinha was born on June 2, 1987.
She is the daughter of Shatrughan Sinha and Poonam Sinha.
Having studied fashion designing at college, she designed the costumes for the 2005 movie 'Mera Dil Leke Dekho'.
She is making her acting career debut with 'Dabangg', opposite Salman Khan.
In 'Dabangg', Sonakshi plays the role of Rajo who falls in love with the corrupt police officer Chulbul Pandey (Salman Khan).
She has already received much acclaim from established actresses, like Vidya Balan and Rani Mukherjee, praising her look and dialogue delivery in the movie.
"To work with Salman isn't a blessing in disguise; it's a blessing openly in front of everyone. It's a fabulous start to my career and the magnitude that 'Dabangg' has reached right now is become more tremendous. 'Dabangg' is a blessing," elated Sonakshi said on being asked about being Salman's co-star.
Her next movie will be 'Kick', opposite Salman Khan.
Sonakshi's family and the Khans are family friends.
Salman Khan had promised Sonakshi a role in a film if she lost enough weight.
"In college I was hugely overweight. But when I lost those extra 30 kilos, I was coaxed by Salman uncle to take a look at the script. Once I did, it was too exciting to let go of the offer. I suppose it's not that I was averse to acting. It was just that there was nothing exciting to make an effort for," says Sonakshi Sinha.
