Model Sonal Chauhan’s acting career has kick-started in a big way.
Sonal Chauhan seems to have become the blue-eyed girl of the Bhatts. First, she was considered a suitable replacement to Bipasha Basu in the sequel of Raaz . Now, Sonal has bagged another film from the Bhatt camp.
It is no secret that Mahesh Bhatt was disappointed when he couldn’t get Bipasha for ‘Raaz 2’. Without ruminating over the loss, Bhatt went ahead and roped in Sonal, who is making a transition from ramps to tinsel town.
And when Esha Deol expressed her inability to act in Bhatt’s movie Jannat , he offered that role, too, to Sonal.
Needless to say the newbie readily accepted the offer.
Why such favoritism towards Sonal?
Bhatt says Sonal is a talented, mature and she verily deserves what she has been offered. There is no favoritism towards her.
