Why shouldn't they cast her in their movies? I mean I'd love for her to do substantial roles like Pakhi, but what's wrong with casting her generally in any movie, any role?
She's a star kid, so what? All of bollywood runs on nepotism. So, what's new? She has screen presence, she can act, she can dance, she can manage films with older and younger costars..more or less she's talented. Yes, of course her family name has helped her make it in bollywood, sure there may be far more deserving people out there from non-filmy backgrounds that are probably working their butts off right now yet have no connection to enter bwood..but, now that Sonakshi has entered she has shown potential...and at the end of the day, that's all that matters. To enter bollywood either you have to be from a filmy background, or have connections to someone somehow, were a model previously, and then there are the rare ones who actually enter based upon merit. So, as I mentioned earlier..why single her with rants that she's a star kid? unless she's downright horrible and is getting offers, I'd understand.
I just wish to see her doing meaty, significant roles in her films so she doesn't waste her potential..otherwise she's far more talented than many of her contemporaries.
