“My daughter has made her own career,” Shatrughan Sinha talks about Sonakshi Sinha’s Dahaad and the new home she’s bought | Hindi Movie News

Shatrughan Sinha has seldom been in a happier space. And it’s got to do with his daughter Sonakshi Sinha.
“I saw her in Dahaad. And I couldn’t stop my tears of joy. I can proudly say that Sonakshi has evolved into a much better actor than I ever was. Her interpretation of the cop’s role is so deep and layered, so filled with nuances, it was like watching a seasoned actress’ interpretation of a complex role,” says Shatrughan Sinha passionately, recalling the times he has been especially proud of his daughter.
“She has always made me proud even when she didn’t choose this profession. As a fellow-star the last time I felt so strongly about Sonakshi’s performance was in Vikramaditya Motwane’s Lootera where she reminded me of Madhabi Mukherjee. Now in Dahaad she is flawless. I can see and say that as a fellow-actor and not her father,” says Shatrughan Sinha.

What makes Shatrughan Sinha especially proud is that Sonakshi is selfmade.
“She never asked me to produce a film to launch her. Nor did she use my name to get roles. She did it on her own. People talk of nepotism. But there are so many star children who do not succeed. My daughter is self-made, just like I was. The difference is, I had no choice. She could have easily taken my help, but she didn’t,” says the proud father.
More pride for the father… Sonakshi has now bought her own home.
“With her hard-earned money,” asserts Shatrughan Sinha. “I remember how proud my parents were when I bought my own home in Mumbai. Today, my wife Poonam and I feel the same pride.”
