Nine
years
ago,
Salman
Khan
introduced
Sonakshi
Sinha
in
Bollywood
with
his
cop
film
'Dabangg'.
While
his
character
Chulbul
Pandey
left
the
masses
asking
for
more,
the
actress
too
left
a
mark
as
his
romantic
interest
Rajjo.
Sonakshi
also
starred
in
Dabangg
2
and
is
now
all
set
to
romance
Salman
once
again
in
the
third
film
in
the
franchise.
However,
you
folks
would
be
surprised
to
know
that
Sonakshi
was
never
a
Salman
Khan
fan.
The
actress
made
this
revelation
in
an
interview
with
Mid-day.
Sonakshi
Would
View
Salman
As
A
Family
Friend
The
actress
told
the
tabloid,
"Growing
up,
I
wasn't
fascinated
by
actors.
So,
I
would
view
Salman
as
a
family
friend."
This
Is
When
She
Became
His
Fan
"I
was
neither
intimidated
nor
had
a
fangirl
moment
when
I
made
my
debut
with
him.
It
is
only
when
I
saw
him
in
Dabangg
that
I
became
his
fan."
Sonakshi
Praises
Salman
For
Reinventing
The
Character
Of
Chulbul
Pandey
"It's
great
to
see
how
he
keeps
adding
his
own
elements
to
Chulbul
Pandey
-
be
it
a
hook
step
or
a
unique
mannerism.
It
is
difficult
to
do
that
with
a
character
that
is
well-established."
The
Actress
Opens
Up
About
Her
Role
In
Dabangg
3
"She
is
that
same
loudmouth
who
likes
to
speak
her
mind.
Since
the
story
has
two
parallel
tracks
-
one
in
the
present
day
and
one
in
the
past
-
the
audience
is
going
to
see
two
versions
of
Rajjo."
Sonakshi
Will
Be
A
Part
Of
Dabangg
3
Title
Track
"Rajjo
is
in
my
blood,
I
can
play
Rajjo
in
my
sleep
too.
We
have
just
started
shooting,
I
joined
the
team
for
the
title
song,''
Sonakshi
had
earlier
told
PTI.
Working
On
Dabangg
3
Is
Like
Homecoming
For
Sonakshi
"It
is
great
to
be
back
to
Dabangg
series.
I
hope
it
continues
to
be
made.
It
started
a
new
trend
in
films."
Directed
by
Prabhudheva,
Dabangg
3
also
stars
Kannada
superstar
Kiccha
Sudeep
as
the
main
antagonist.
The
film
is
slated
to
release
in
Christmas
2019.
