WHAT? Sonakshi Sinha to join politics like her father Shatrughan Sinha? Here’s what she has to say

Sonakshi Sinha, best known for her part in ‘Heeramandi’, dismisses politics with a laugh, citing nepotism worries. She reflects on the lack of aptitude and openness needed, emphasising personal choice over familial tradition.

Sonakshi Sinha’s portrayal as Fareedan in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s most recent web series, Heeramandi, has been receiving positive reviews. The gifted actress, who is renowned for her stirring performances, has recently responded to questions about her possible foray into politics with her trademark candour and wit.

Sonakshi responded to the question with a humorous aside, saying, “No, fir vahan bhi tum nepotism nepotism karoge.” ‘No, then you’ll accuse me of nepotism there too,’ she said.

Sonakshi also highlighted the need for politicians to understand and respond to the issues that people from all over the nation have, which is something she believes is not innate in them. She admitted that, in contrast to the openness and accessibility expected in politics, she was selectively transparent with a small number of people in her life.

Sonakshi concluded her remarks by saying that she is not interested in pursuing a political career purely out of respect for family customs or social expectations. Her words demonstrated a realistic approach to job decisions and a careful assessment of her advantages and disadvantages.

In addition to sharing her observations on the world of politics, Sonakshi talked about the thrilling experience of shooting Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s web series. She described how the filmmaker had changed a song sequence into a one-take shot at the last minute, which had first made her uncomfortable. But as soon as the cameras began to roll, Sonakshi’s fears vanished, showcasing her versatility and acting prowess.
