Sonakshi Sinha's item number in Akshay Kumar's forthcoming production with Ashwini Yardi was shown to her father Shatrughan Sinha in hospital.
The star dad recently had a bypass at a hospital in Andheri. As he was unable to see the rushes, a special CD of the song was made and shown to Shatrughan on a laptop.
The Khiladi had roped in his lucky charms his Rowdy Rathore co-star as well as Prabhu Deva for the Govinda track in the film based on Paresh Rawal's play.
Shatrughan says, `Popular Govinda numbers like Shor Mach Gaya Shor Dekho Aaya Maakhan Chor and Teen Batti Waala Govinda Aala were filmed on me, so I enjoyed Sonakshi's Go Go Govinda from Akshay's film. I feel fortunate that Govinda songs are all in the family.` Hopefully after seeing the song, he even felt better.
Hopes for double whammy with Akshay
The Actress is hoping that "Joker", her second film with Akshay Kumar, replicates the success of their first movie "Rowdy Rathore".
"If this film gets a push because of our previous film ('Rowdy Rathore'), then it would be a good thing for us and our producers, who are the same, UTV. If a pair has worked then it will definitely benefit in future as well, " two-film-old Sonakshi said here in an interview.
So far she has had two releases - "Dabangg" and "Rowdy Rathore" - and both have entered the Rs.100 crore club.
When asked if she considers himself a lucky charm, the 25-year-old said: "As far as the lucky charm tag is concerned, you have given me that tag and tomorrow it will be someone else."
Her "Rowdy Rathore" and "Joker" co-star Akshay says there is no such thing as lucky or unlucky.
"When films work, then everyone becomes a lucky charm. If you (the reporter) also do a character role in our film and it works, then you will also become a lucky charm. Everyone is a lucky charm, " the 44-year-old said.
"It is an artificial thing, lucky or unlucky. Be it a boy or a girl, he is lucky. It's just in your mind, " he added.
Sonakshi is currently shooting for "Dabangg 2", "Lootera" and "Son of Sardar"
