Talking about Sonakshi, he said: “Sonakshi is doing her second film, but it doesn’t seem that this is her second film, it seems that this is her 25th film - she is so professional and so good. Both Akshay and Sonakshi dance well. This is a bonus. Not only fight, dance is also there in the film,” he said.
