Shotgun's darling daughter, Sonakshi Sinha is playing a Bengali character in her upcoming Saif Ali Khan starrer Bullet Raja. It would be nice to see the actress portraying something different from her previous work where she mostly played similar kind of roles. Her bong girl avatar will be for a brief period in the film.Like seen in the promo, Sonakshi cladding in the conventional Bengali red-bordered saree along with big red bindi, gajra and alta on her hands, she would also be seen essaying the famous Bengali folk dance Jhumur in Tigmanshu Dhulia’s action-thriller. As per the sources, “To perfect the dance form, the actress specially learnt Jhumur dance for the film.”Apart from high-octane action stunts, guns and goon, the film features a love-story of Saif and Sonakshi. It also stars actors like Vidyut Jamwal, Jimmy Shergill, Gulshan Grover in prominent roles. Produced by Fox Star Studios, Bullet Raja is schedule to release on November 29.We must say, with Sonakshi putting in so much effort to perfect the dance, it'll have a lasting impression on people's minds when the film hits the big screen.

Tigmanshu Dhulia’s latest offering Bullet Raja may have missed the target at box office, but it has been collecting appreciations for the star daughter Sonakshi Sinha, who portrayed a character that is far from any vulgarity and controversy. She says her next film R…Rajkumar also has the influence of her style, which is again on the lines of Indian traditions.It is a known fact that Sonakshi have never played a damsel in distress. Be it her debut movie Dabangg or R…Rajkumar, the audience finds her, often, cladding in Indian outfits. “My closest friends know I am pretty bindaas that way, and these characters that I have played, have been women of substance and people who have their own voice. I think that when people meet me they realize that I am like that, and that's why I get cast for these roles. I wear my heart on my sleeve, and portray who I am on screen,” said Bullet Raja girl.She added that she has her own rules about what she will or won't do on screen, and is very unapologetic about them. Sonakshi wore a sari and came out of the water in Gandi Baat in R... Rajkumar, there was much talk about the missing bikini from that quintessential Bollywood scene.“I am glad that people are talking about it. I found it really funny when it was brought to my notice - that when people come out of the water, they come out in bikinis, and I was in a sari. Prabhu sir (Prabhu Deva, the director) knows how to project his heroines in a good way without making it look vulgar or cheap. So I was very happy, I had no qualms in doing that scene. And really, being sexy or sex appeal doesn't lie in the length of your clothes or how skimpy an outfit is or how much you're revealing. I think it's always nicer to leave stuff to imagination,” she averred.You have a point girl.

Actor Jimmy Shergil and director Tigmanshu Dhulia’s collaboration has been running ever since the latter debuted in Bollywood with Haasil. Be it Charas, Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster, Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster Returns or latest release Bullett Raja, Jimmy is one common thing in all the mentioned films.Released on November 28, Bullett Raja features Saif Ali Khan in the title role with his lady of affection being Sonakshi Sinha. Jimmy plays Saif’s partner in crime and has covered prominent part in the film. While Saif plays a character with an adventurous streak, Jimmy plays a much more headstrong guy.“The three of us have a lot of sequences together though, as you can see from the promos. The film's script is such that it brings us together. It would definitely have been a different space for Sonakshi to be working with Tigmanshu. However I could sense that Sonakshi was comfortable in what she was doing. As for Saif then well, he adapted to things so well from day one. He was bang on as the character. According to me, it is one of his finest performances. No one has ever seen Saif on these lines,” averred Jimmy.About the director, he added, “Tigmanshu was clear from the very beginning during the narration stage itself that bond between Saif and I had to be very prominent right through the film's narrative. There is jugalbandi between the two of us during dialogues as well as action sequences.”Bullett Raja is produced by Rahul Mittra, Nitin Tej Ahuja and Tigmanshu Dhulia, under the banner of BrandSmith Motion Pictures and Moving Pictures.
