Sonakshi Sinha’s fashion journey has been rife with highs and lows, but she now seems to have reached a place where she cares two hoots about her detractors. In fact, the actress now plans to launch her own fashion line. This was revealed on a chat show hosted by Pria Kataaria Puri.
“I was studying fashion (at Shreemati Nathibai Damodar Thackersey Women’s University) at one point and always thought of joining a magazine or becoming a stylist. Born in a family full of film stars, I never felt like taking it (acting) up as a career. I was seeing it so closely; it was everyday life for me. I was never fascinated with cinema and wanted to explore other things. It is quite possible for me to launch a fashion line of my own. I have studied fashion, have the passion for it and would love to come up with a range of my own,” said Sonakshi on Born Stylish.
The Tevar girl had designed her own costume for the Go, Go, Govinda item song in the 2012 film OMG Oh My God. She even sketched the kind of accessories she wanted to team with the Indo-Western costume.
Other Bollywood faces who have their own clothing label include Salman Khan (Being Human), Madhuri Dixit (Madz), Hrithik Roshan (HRX) and Sonam and Rhea Kapoor (Rheson).
