Actor-turned-politician Shatrughan Sinha’s eyes welled up on seeing his daughter on screen.
Actor Salman Khan is soon becoming a fast friend for actor-turned-politician Shatrughan Sinha and his daughter, Sonakshi Sinha. During his time Salman had introduced many leading ladies opposite himself on the silver screen. But never has he been as protective and paternal about any of them as he has been to Sonakshi.
During the making of his upcoming film, Salman apparently kept a hawk’s eye over the debutante’s well-being, dress, food and other details on location.
Recently when shooting for the film was over and the proud father Shatrughan found tears welling up in his eyes on seeing his daughter on screen, Salman held his senior’s hand and said, “Sir, Sonakshi is not just your daughter. She is the entire film industry’s daughter.”
Shatrughan can barely keep the pride and love out of his voice. “I can confidently say that my daughter was pampered, protected and promoted beautifully in her debut film by Salman and his family. He has given Sonakshi a princess’ launch. She couldn’t have hoped for a better launch vehicle. When he said that Sonakshi is the entire industry’s daughter, I was moved to tears. Who says Bollywood is not a place for decent girls?” questions Shatrughan.
Now, the veteran actor trusts Salman so much that he is willing to let his daughter go unescorted by the parents for various promotional tours abroad and in the country too.
Says Shatrughan, “I am very busy with my various political activities. My wife too is caught up in a family problem. So why not? Sonkashi is completely safe with Salman and the team. I’ll be accompanying Salman and Sonakshi to Patna soon where they will pay a flash visit to a cancer hospital. Beyond that I can’t accompany her everywhere.”
Once popularly known as Shotgun, the proud father is now worried about how his daughter will feel about working with other banners, especially after having a field day with the Khan brothers.
“She has been completely spoilt by Salman and Arbaaz. I see a lot of myself in Salman. He is fearless and not awed by anyone, just like me,” ends Shatrughan.
