Celebrating over 15 years in cinema, the actor, who was at the Amazon Beautyverse, asserts that acting will always remain her first love, viewing her successful YouTube channel as a fun by-product of her journey. In an exclusive interaction with mid-day, she opens up about the evolution of "limitless" beauty in Indian cinema and also shares her mother’s natural skincare secrets. 

Sonakshi Sinha on content creation 

Sonakshi, who has over a million subscribers on YouTube, courtesy of her makeup tutorials and personal vlogs, doesn’t consider herself a full-time content creator. Asserting that acting will always remain her first love, she says that it is more of moving with the times. “The digital space has really flourished in the last few years, and it's also a great way for me to reach my audience directly, which is why I'm on it. This is something that I can do by being my authentic self, and that's why it doesn't feel like work but fun. I’m not making it my main source of income. It will always be a by-product of what I’m doing,” she explains.
