While talking about her father’s reaction, she says, “Papa bohat khush hai. (Papa is overjoyed). Papa used to tell his friends when I was a kid, “My daughter would be a police officer.”

So, after donning the outfit, I texted him the first photo, telling him, ‘I have fulfilled your wishes…’ He is quite excited to see the show.” Sonakshi has learned to ride a bike, judo, and do action stunts for the drama.
