She was to be the leading lady opposite Shahid. But things didn't work out as the makers felt that the two wouldn't look good on screen. There were plans to hold a screen test, but Sonakshi was put off with the way things were being discussed.
The major bone of contention was that she wasn't informed about Sonam being signed on to do the film. She only go to know when the reports came out in the media. However, now tables have turned and Shahid is more than keen on working with the actress. A source reveals, "Dabangg is a massive hit and it has made Sonakshi hot property. He definitely wants to work with her, but she isn't that keen after what happened in the past."
Buzz is that Kapur has been sending feelers to the actresss through common friends but Sonakshi is not interested. So, here's one jodi you won't see on screen anytime soon.
