Sonakshi recalls her time in Bhuj

Actress Sonakshi Sinha said that certain experiences become a part of who you are while calling the time that she spent with soldiers in Bhuj an “unforgettable” one. “Thanks for this amazing opportunity. Sports girl for life, volleyball, Jai Jawaan, Bhuj, Punjab Regiment, Army camp,” tweeted Sonakshi, who was at the camp to shoot for a news channel. “Will never forget the time I spent with our amazing soldiers, tried some of the things they do, made them smile and left with an unforgettable experience,” she added. She will soon be seen in Kalank, which is conceptualised by Karan Johar.

‘I have a lot of friends. I do not believe in having ‘best friends’ because I am a social person. I get along well with a lot of people and establish a good relationship with each of them. I met Erica (Fernandes) for the first time on set. We hit it off right away.’

Caity wants ‘girlmances’

Actress Caity Lotz said there are a lot of great ‘bromances’ on Legends of Tomorrow so she wants to see more of ‘girlmances.’

“Now that we have so many girls on our cast, I'd like to have more missions where it's all ladies. We need some more girlmances. If a ‘bromance' was to happen with girls, what would it be called? Anyway, I'd like to see more of that,” said Lotz. She also praised actress Jes Macallan, who is seen as Ava Sharpe on the show, “Jes is an amazing actress. We have so much fun working together. The chemistry in real life comes out on screen.”
