Newbie Sonakshi Sinha is not anymore surprised at her comparison to yesteryear actress Reena Roy, but it certainly doesn't elicit any smile on her face or lights it up, as usually is the case with all newcomers.
In fact, the Dabangg actress gets quite irritable at this obvious similarity, says mother Poonam Sinha. For the record, Sonakshi shares strong resemblance to the actress who had once dated her father Shatrughan Sinha, who was linked to her even after his marriage.
"Absolutely not! She doesn't look like anyone. Sonakshi is my daughter and she looks like me," says Poonam defensively. "Please don't bring this topic with her," cautioned the pretty Mrs. Sinha.
Ever since Sonakshi's Dabangg look was revealed, people were shocked at this strong similarity. Several images on the net of Reena Roy and Sonakshi were even juxtaposed insinuating unpleasant stuff. Of course Sonakshi didn't take these comparisons in a lighter way, but as she went along making her strong position in Bollywood as the no. 1 heroine today, such comparisons aren't heeded to anymore.
Recently in a casual chat with us Sonakshi agreed that certain features of her face and her eye make up, that's similar to Reena Roy, could be the reason for eliciting such responses from across. However, in the last year, Sonakshi believes, her looks have grown distinct, "I am sure I don't look anything like Reena Roy now," she quipped.
Whatever it is, Sonakshi's beauty certainly differs from her pretty mother Poonam. Agree Shatru saab?
