With one more hit (Holiday...) on her CV, a film (Lingaa) opposite South superstar Rajinikanth and a romantic period drama opposite Hrithik Roshan, actor Sonakshi Sinha who just turned 27, is on a song. A quick chat with the young gun on her success, the repercussions of being Beti No 1 and why there is no downside to acting in the movies.

Sonakshi, a lot of actresses say that they never pitch themselves for a role while others refuse to wait for the phone to ring; what's your approach? Do you read scripts yourself or do you go with someone else's judgment?

People know who I am, what I am capable of, what I am all about and if they feel I suit a role, they approach me directly. I read the script, go through it and try to understand if it's a character that I suit, whether I am capable of doing it. I need to feel very instinctively about it. I need to laugh, cry, react to it at a script level.

After Ajay Devgn, Akshay Kumar, Salman Khan, Imran Khan, Ranvir Singh and Shahid Kapoor, who are the actors you would like to work with?

I would like to work with my generation"Varun, Siddharth, Ranbir and Hrithik.

Who are the actresses that you look up to?

I really look up to people like Vidya Balan and Kareena Kapoor because of the kind of films they have done. Kareena has lasted for so long and done so many different kinds of films, so many characters and is still engaging the audience.
