Sonakshi Sinha responded to rumors about Sanjay Leela Bhansali's alleged habit of angrily throwing phones on the sets of Heeramandi.
During an interview with India Today, the 36-year-old actress debunked speculations suggesting that Sanjay Leela Bhansali throws phones in anger on sets, dismissing them as "absolute rumors."
The Dabangg actress also revealed that she gradually opened up and developed a sense of comfort with SLB throughout the process, feeling deeply engaged as if it were a collaborative effort.
While praising him, Sonakshi said, “He is a taskmaster, I won't deny that. But, he deserves every bit of it because see the kind of work and magic that he creates, right? And if somebody does mess with his vision, I think it's his right to make sure the work gets done.”
Offering insights into working experience with SLB, the Bollywood diva shared, “I won’t lie, I was a bit nervous."
"But when he did start working with me, he enjoyed what I was doing, he enjoyed what I was bringing to his vision, he enjoyed working with me, and then I automatically sort of eased up,” she added.
Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar is streaming on Netflix from May 1, 2024.
