The beauty with a deadly smile Sonkashi Sinha is on cloud nine. She should be. So far she has released only two films (Dabangg and Rowdy Rathore) and both have been smashing hits. It appears as if the girl has a knack for selecting the right kind of (read: commercially viable) films.

Another thing that is more than noticeable about the gal is: she doesn’t wear skimpy clothes in the films, and consciously so. In a post-Rowdy Rathore interview given to an Indian newspaper Sonakshi S spoke on the subject, “I’m happy that unlike other actresses who wear short clothes for item numbers I look attractive even when I wear saris.”

Wow, check out her confidence. She thinks she looks attractive in saris. Wouldn’t it have been better if someone else had said that?
