During an interview dating back to 2017, Sonakshi opened up about picking unconventional roles such as Pakhi Roy Chaudhary in Lootera. She said, “I don’t believe I’m all that pretty. And I’ve never done a role to prove a point. I did Lootera because it came during the time I was doing masala films. It offered a refreshing change. The script was beautiful. My role was that of a TB patient. But I never consciously scouted for such a role. It just happened.”View this post on Instagram
