Says a source, "After a script narration session, Sonakshi expressed interest in the project. However, later, she did a rethink because the role wasn't as meaty as she would have liked it to be."
Adds the source, "She will next be seen in an action-packed, woman-oriented film, Akira, and so, she is not willing to take a step back and settle for smaller roles. She wants to remould herself and set the bar high by taking up roles that challenge her."
