After
the
release
of
his
big-ticket
picture
Happy
New
Year
(HNY)
actor
Sonu
Sood
has
pressed
the
'pause'
button
in
his
career.
The
idea
is
to
watch
the
audience
and
the
film
trade's
reaction
to
his
performance
in
the
movie
and
to
take
his
career
to
the
next
level.
"I
am
looking
at
HNY
as
a
cut-off
point
in
my
career.
I
am
hoping
that
one
phase
of
my
professional
life
has
ended
and
a
new
one
will
begin.
I've
therefore
signed
no
films
after
HNY.
I
want
to
see
the
reaction
to
my
performance
as
one
of
the
film's
protagonists," said
Sonu.
Happy
New
Year
actor
Sonu
Sood
confesses
that
the
confidence
to
take
such
a
big
decision
comes
from
Shahrukh
Khan
who
has
produced
the
film
and
also
acted
in
it.
"It
is
to
his
credit
that
he
gave
me
prominence
in
all
the
promotion
and
marketing
of
Happy
New
Year.
He
praises
my
performance
at
every
given
opportunity.
That
has
boosted
my
self
confidence.
I've
done
dozens
of
Hindi,
Telugu
and
Tamil
films
in
strong
supporting
roles,
both
negative
and
positive.
It's
time
for
me
to
take
the
lead
now,"
he
said.
Hopefully,
Happy
New
Year
would
do
the
trick
for
Sonu.
"I
can't
believe
audiences
are
clapping
and
cheering
at
my
entry.
It's
almost
unreal.
It's
time
for
me
to
indulge
in
some
serious
herogiri,"
said
the
actor
who
visited
theatres
to
see
the
response.
"The
break
between
what
I've
done
before
Happy
New
Year
and
what
I'll
do
after
would
be
decisive,"
Sonu
added.
