Sonakshi Sinha has been basking in the success of her recent project on her professional front. This is after her stint in the double role of 'Rehana' and her daughter, 'Fareedan' in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's directorial debut web series, Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar. The series is based on the lives of tawaifs in the backdrop of the Indian freedom struggle of the 1940s. It was released on May 1, 2024, and apart from Sonakshi, it also starred Richa Chadha, Manisha Koirala, Aditi Rao Hydari, Sharmin Segal, Taha Shah Badussha, and many others.
Now, as Sonakshi Sinha turned 37 years old on June 2, 2024, an old video from one of her birthdays in the 90s resurfaced on social media. The video was shared by Lehren TV on its social media handle, and with the voiceover in the background of the video, we learnt that the birthday celebration was hosted in Shatrugan Sinha's house, Ramayan. The Sinha family also celebrated the birthdays of their two sons, Luv and Kush, who had their birthdays just a few days later.

For the birthday party, Sonakshi looked adorable in a white frock. In one of the glimpses, her doting daddy, Shatrugan, was seen smothering her cheeks with lots of kisses while carrying her in his arms. Moreover, we spotted huge 3D cakes especially arranged for the little kids, including Sonakshi and her brothers, Luv and Kush.

Walking in the footsteps of her father, Sonakshi Sinha has carved a niche for herself. However, she too, faced pay disparity in the film industry, just like many other actresses. In an interaction with News18, Sonakshi opened up about that how actresses in the film industry aren’t given equivalent pay for their success, stardom and hard work. She revealed feeling bad when her efforts don’t get reciprocated even after the performance that she provides. Sonakshi said:
“It's not easy and it doesn't feel right sometimes. When filmmakers approach you, they know that you bring something to the table. But when it comes to the money conversation, everybody just wants an actress, particularly, to reduce her fee."

Moving on with the conversation, Sonakshi talked about the box-office failures in the past and revealed how she delivered a few misses at the box-office, among other semi-hits. The actress clarified how the ultimate success of a film is dynamic and that, as an actor, she has absolutely no control over it. But she also admitted that her best performances have always been appreciated. In her words:
“But I also knew that the box office fate of a film isn't in my control. As an actor, you've to give it your best. My performances were always appreciated. That's how I moved forward and kept on doing the work that I wanted to. It's paying off now.”
