Sonakshi Sinha to star opposite Akshay Kumar in Joker
After impressing one and all with her performance in Dabangg, Sonakshi Sinha is certainly a hot property. The pretty actress has been signed by Shirish Kunder for his ambitious 3D directorial venture Joker. Sonakshi would be paired opposite none other than Akshay Kumar in Joker.
Explaining his choice of why Sonakshi for the leading lady, Shirish reasons, "Sonakshi fitted the role perfectly. Hers is an extremely performance oriented character which is there throughout the film with Akshay. Besides another reason for choosing Sonakshi is the fact that she and Akki would be a fresh on-screen pair considering Akshay has worked with most of the top leading ladies." Unlike Dabangg in which she played a village belle, Sonakshi would be seen playing a modern girl in Joker.
Besides Akshay and Sonakshi, Joker would also boast of a huge supporting cast which Shirish would be announcing in the days to come. Commenting on whether there will be some Hollywood technicians involved considering that it's a 3-D film, Shirish says, "Most of the technicians will be from India but yes, since this a new technology, we would be using the expertise of some experienced names from Hollywood too."
Joker is a co-production between Farah Khan & Shirish Kunder's Three's Company and Akshay's Hari Om Entertainment. The film goes on floors in January 2011 and will be mostly shot all around India.
Sonakshi’s a true desi girl!
Did you notice Sonakshi’s Indian look in Dabangg? It was no accident. Her father Shatrughan Sinha says the newcomer will continue to depict Indian women in her upcoming projects.
“People are praising her look in Dabangg. After a long time, a typical Indian heroine was seen onscreen. Sonakshi will continue to do roles that are within the boundaries of self-respect. She will not compromise her values for some rat race. She is in no hurry,” Sinha says.
The actor-politician feels that right attitude is more important than short clothes to portray a character onscreen. Sonakshi has already signed another film with Salman Khan, her co-star in Dabangg, besides bagging projects with directors like Farah Khan, Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Sajid Nadiadwala. She is also in Race 2.

The bong beauty, Bipasha Basu and the handsome hunk, John Abraham had so many rounds of break ups in the eyes of the media…..perhaps even the lovely couple would not be able to count on that! According to recent news, the eight year old relationship between these two actors has come to a standstill and Bollywood is buzzing with this news as usual.
Bipasha and John were seen to be dating each other during the making of the very hot ‘Jism’. Even director Amit Saxena confessed that he thought the couple had more than ‘just friendship’ while on the sets of the film. Though John has been quite open in the media about his love for Bipasha, Bips on the other hand has usually mentioned John as her ‘best buddy’ who she is most comfortable working with.
The first news of their breakup came in after the couple completed a hectic schedule for the making of the film Goal. According to sources the couple was seen having a tiff over John referring other Bolly actresses like Priyanka Chopra for roles opposite him. A close source said that the duo was having more quarrels than they could handle and had decided to call off their relationship.
Post this incident, news of fight over the phone was also heard when Bips was in Rio for the shooting of Dhoom-2. Bipasha reportedly started weeping after a call from John. She even confided in her close friend Abhishek Bachchan who shared screen space with her in the film. Infact Aishwarya was also said to be feeling sorry for the Bong beauty.
Recent news of the couple finally deciding to separate came in a month ago. Close friend of the couple have said that the split was inevitable as John was keener on settling down in his personal life but Bips, being the more ambitious and successful of the two was not too keen on marriage at this moment of her life.
Bipasha and John came out with an explanation as an answer to the rumours that have been spreading like wild fire. They said that their individual professional commitments have not allowed them to make public appearances together for a long time and that has probably caused such doubts among people around. Though Bipasha sent a tweet recently clearing any such news between the two, fans of the couple would have to judge the sensitivity of the situation themselves…..because Bolly town is unimaginable without both…..split ups…..and rumours!!
Sonakshi Sinha on weight loss spree for ‘Race 2′
After playing the demure village girl in in “Dabangg”, Sonakshi will get into a serious kickass mode for “Race 2″.
“Bipasha Basu was presented in a very striking way in Race. We’ve to make sure Sonakshi is equally presented in the sequel,” says producer Ramesh Taurani.
But before “Race 2″, there is Shirish Kunder’s “Joker”.
Sonakshi, who got no opportunity to display her dancing skills in “Dabangg”, was eagerly looking forward to her own slice of Farah Khan’s sizzle in “Joker”.
To her dismay Farah and Shrish have informed her that her character gets no chance to dance in their film.
“I requested Farah to please, please make me dance in her husband’s film. But my character doesn’t have any dance-able opportunities. Sad. We’ll have to wait for another occasion.”
Perhaps “Race 2″ will provide her with a chance to sizzle in a song and a chance to do some serious action.
“Yes,” Sonakshi says excitedly, “It’s a very guns-and-gadgets subject. And I’m looking forward to doing my own dancing.”
