My mom keeps me grounded: Sonakshi Sinha

New Delhi: Actress Sonakshi Sinha, who tasted success at a very early stage in her career, having made her debut with the super hit film Dabangg, says that it’s her mother and her friends who’ve ensured that she hasn’t been swayed by stardom.

“My closest friends are not from the industry, and they keep me grounded. They always keep it real with me,” Sonakshi says, adding, “My mother is my biggest critic. If she likes my work, she will praise me, and if she doesn’t, she’ll be the first person to tell me. So she gives me my dose of reality checks.

The actress, who will soon be seen in Dabangg 3, is happy to hear that Prabhu Deva has joined the project as a director.

“I am thrilled. It’s like going back to home base for me, it’s such a pleasure to work with the Dabangg team. Prabhu sir is joining us this time, and I have worked with him in the past, so it will be amazing. I can’t wait to start working on the project,” she says.
