Met Will Smith and performed before Coldplay at Global Citizen? That's some serious star power right there. She's come a long way. Though I must say, I wish her recent choices like 'Jatadhara' had the same impact as her earlier work.

The Guinness record for painting nails is such a fun, random achievement! It shows a different, more playful side to a mainstream actress. Love these personal throwbacks from celebrities.

Honestly, Akira was a decent attempt but didn't live up to the original Tamil film. Still, respect to Sonakshi for doing her own stunts and pushing for stronger female roles. The industry needed that.

"Hadn't met Zaheer yet..." 🥺 That's so sweet and candid! It's refreshing to see a Bollywood star share these personal waiting periods and life milestones. Makes them feel more connected to us fans.

The Goan wedding and Spain trip sound amazing. Our film stars get to experience such diverse cultures within India and abroad. On a side note, hope she does more action films soon, she has a great screen presence for them.
