Shotgun’s chubby daughter, Shotgun Junior (this is what people call Sonakshi Sinha), never needed Salman to be her launch-pad, because she had her godfather sitting at home. A very fat girl pursuing fashion designing as career never in her wildest dreams thought of being an actress till Salman noticed the spark in her eyes and wanted to cast her for Dabangg. The only thing that was not in place was her weight. Sona worked out day and night to lose all that extra fat and flab to become the curvy-figured girl that she is today. She had a magical debut with Dabangg, just one powerful dialogue in the entire movie and Sonakshi was the new ‘it’ girl, as her dreams of becoming a well-known fashion designer carved way for becoming the brightest commercial heroine that Bollywood ever had. And all thanks to Salman Khan!
