Salman Khan helps Sonakshi Sinha

After having helped Sonakshi Sinha in making a blockbuster Bollywood debut with the movie ‘Dabangg’, Salman Khan is now said to be giving the beautiful lady some useful tips to improve her painting skills.


According to a leading daily, the 25-year-old actress and her mentor have one thing in common, which is their interest in painting. Sonakshi, who is all set to promote her upcoming movie ‘Lootera’- in which she plays the character of an artist, has decided to paint live at the launch event of one of her songs in the film.

“Sonakshi, like Salman, has the same hobby that is painting. She likes a lot of Salman’s works of art, so much so that she calls herself a fan of his paintings. And recently, Sonakshi has been taking advice from Salman about painting live for the media,” a source close to movie crew said.

The insider also asserted that it was the makers who wanted Sinha to paint live with the media around, on the launch of the song ‘Sawaar loon’- that is based on her and Ranveer Singh’s roles and captures the journey of them falling in love while Sinha teaches Singh how to paint.

“She seems quite prepared to put up a good performance,” the source said.

Director of the movie, Vikramaditya Motwane, said, “Sonakshi has always been fond of Salman’s paintings and we are going to paint live for the media at the launch of our first song.”

An official spokesperson of the movie added, “It’s true that Sonakshi has been taking tips from Salman and everyone will get to see her work at the launch.”
