Salman Khan and Sonakshi Sinha are witnessing a lot of interesting incidents happening on the sets of the upcoming Dabangg. One such incident led the lead actress Sonakshi Sinha to discover the painter in her.

Sonakshi took to paint brush and canvas. All thanks to Bollywood closet painter Salman Khan who taught the lass to get out of her comfort zone and move beyond sketching.

"I've done fashion designing, so I knew how to sketch. Using the paintbrush was something I dreaded. But Salman helped me overcome this fear and taught me to paint", confirms Sonakshi

Sonakshi whose first painting was a woman with a cross has impressed Salman Khan highly with her initial attempt. Being a quick learner Sonakshi painted much on the lines of Salman's style.

"I've incorporated a lot of his (Salman's) style into mine.The day I will be able to put my own ideas on canvas my painting will look different from his" adds Sonakshi.
