Sonu Sood hits a purple patch

Scent of success Sonu Sood
Beyond a blink-and-miss mention, most history books will not tell you about Sujamal, the doting brother of Jodhaa.
Sujamal is now an integral part of the lives of Akbar and Jodhaa, after Ashutosh Gowarikar’s fact-meets-fiction film.
The intense role of Sujamal is actor Sonu Sood’s passport to critical acclaim. “The film is a hit and I am being appreciated for my performance,” he says.
Sword fighting, horse riding and the works aren’t new to Sonu. “I learnt sword fighting while studying engineering in Nagpur; I just had to practice. I’ve done sword fighting sequences in my Telugu and Tamil films too.”
The success of Jodhaa Akbar is still sinking in. Sonu wants to weigh his options carefully.
His plate’s full
Coming up is Anees Bazmee’s action-comedy Singhh is King and Rajshri’s Ek Vivah Aisi Hi. “This is not a sequel to Vivah,” Sonu clarifies.
“The film is special to me since it’s also a solo hero film,” he says, flashing his trademark smile. Singhh is King features Sonu as a king of Indian origin settled in Australia.
