When the ‘Rowdy Rathore’ star was asked what she dislikes about Shah Rukh Khan and Aamir Khan, the actress said, “I can’t answer that because I don’t know them well. On-screen they both have done some wonderful characters. Shah Rukh is the ultimate romantic hero of Bollywood.” Sonakshi hailed the three superstars of Bollywood and said it is extremely difficult to reach their status.
The actress said that audience’s accessibility to stars has increased, which has reduced their exclusivity. “Actors like Shah Rukh, Salman are stars in true sense. Stars are ones, who are far from you and it is difficult to reach them. During their time there was not much media. Now there is social media and hence accessibility has increased. I feel thats a factor which will make it difficult for us to achieve that kind of stardom,” she said.
Sonakshi said that rivalry between contemporaries that has long existed in Bollywood has reduced with time because the current generation of actors are friendly and cordial to each other.
“Our generation is brought up in a way that we are friendly with everyone. If you ask me about some other actress, I will not hesitate in talking. Rivalry between actors is something which we don’t talk about but is generally written in media. “It is true that my closest friends are not from the industry but I am cordial to all other actors, whenever I meet them. We are colleagues at the end of the day, we watch each other work. We tell each other if we like or dislike, that closeness is there,” she said.
