Sonakshi Sinha recalls how Ranveer Singh gave up coffee during Lootera: ‘He said I’m going to be calm over here’

Talking about Lootera, Sonakshi shared, “When I heard the narration, it really moved me. I loved the film, I loved the role.” The actor said that she took up the film “to prove people wrong”. Lootera is still considered one of Sonakshi’s most accomplished performances.

Sonakshi Sinha shared screen space with Ranveer Singh in Lootera and shared that just to calm his energy level, Ranveer gave up on coffee. “When Ranveer came on the set, he said, ‘I’m going to be very calm over here. I’ve stopped having coffee.’ I was like, ‘Thank god.’ Ranveer had given up coffee so his energy is at a normal level,” she shared.

In an earlier chat with Hindustan Times, Sonakshi said that during the early days, she had some “friction” with Vikramaditya Motwane as they came “from different schools of cinema”. Sonakshi recalled, “He used to be like ‘Get into the character, stay in this, feel the emotion’ and I was like ‘Huh? What is he saying?’ We did have friction initially. I asked him one day ‘How can Paakhi be cracking jokes at one moment and then coughing up blood, crying the next? That’s when he realised he should just let me be, and said ‘Whatever it is you are doing, is working for me’. That was our moment of reconciliation.”
