Patna basi angry with Sonakshi

With two back-to-back blockbusters under her belt Sonakshi Sinha has much reason to be proud and so, feels Bihar, do Biharis. There’s a growing resentment in the state about the fact that the Bihar ki beti has not paid them a visit since her stardom in 'Dabangg'. And now when her second film 'Rowdy Rathore' too has acquired blockbuster status, the question being asked in Bihar is, where is Sonakshi?

We hear the matter is finally being sorted out. And the young Sinha star is all set to pay her home-state a visit. Proud father Shatrughan Sinha who saw 'Rowdy Rathore' in Delhi with bureaucrats and police officers and can’t stop beaming with paternal pride, says Sonakshi’s Patna visit is now being worked out. Says Shatruji, “Her absence from Bihar is not intentional. Why would she not go home? Bihar is her home. She spent much of her growing years in our home in Patna when my mother was alive. Now when my mother is no more I stay in a hotel in Patna for convenience. But we are now coming to Patna and people there should stop sulking.She has just not had time to make that long-due visit. Even when the promotional tours for 'Rowdy Rathore' were planned it isn’t her fault that Patna was not on the promotional map.”

The doting dad cribs that Sonakshi is hardly home. “After 'Dabangg' she has mostly been shooting outdoors. Even my wife and I hardly get to see her. On Saturday it was Sonakshi’s birthday. On Sunday morning she left for Dalhousie for the shooting of 'Lootera'.”
