It’s been nearly a year since Sonakshi Sinha burst into Bollywood with Dabangg, but she is still to move away from talks surrounding her weight and figure. Sonakshi, however, says she believes in eating healthy and working out regularly, in the process becoming immune to these remarks.
On the sets of Shirish Kunder’s Joker, the actress religiously got a dabba from home, but as it was too unhealthy for her, it went straight into co-star Akshay Kumar’s van. “Since I survive on greens, the dabba my mother packed for me found a willing taker in Akshay,” says Sonakshi. “He likes the food she gives and my mother also loves cooking for him. The other day he told me that my mother is the best cook and guess what? I agree with him.”
To see Akki tuck into home cooked biriyani and halwa was quite a sight, especially since he’s such a disciplinarian with regards to his diet. “Akshay has consciously kept away from sweet and fried food. He has amazing control over his eating habits. I have known him for years and he can just look through a cup of ice cream or a scrumptious pastry,” smirked Farah Khan.
