Of course, as Munni is going badnaam all over India, we all know about Dabangg and how it is going to blast us all off our senses thanks to the fantastic songs and fun trailers that are all over the country now. But the heroine is a new face. A lot of questions are being raised about who she is and what she is up to. So here's a list of facts to elaborate on Sonakshi's life.

When first we saw Sonakshi, she was a bit in the chubby side to tell the truth. Remember the Lakme Fashion Week 2008? She walked the ramps there. The daughter of veteran film actor Shatrughan Sinha, Sonakshi belonged to the privileged class already. But that did not cut with Salman who told her to lose weight and come to him for a role. Sonakshi agreed, and the rest was history. Salman signed her on for Dabangg and soon after they began working Salman started to show interest in working in a second film with her.

Found by Salman Khan, Sonakshi is all set to make her debut in Hindi films after being a model for some time in the past.
