At a time when Bollywood's leading ladies are struggling to accommodate films in their busy schedules, Sonakshi Sinha has been juggling her Bollywood outings with television shows. Although she has shows like Indian Idol Junior (2015) and Nach Baliye 8 on her resume, Sinha took her fans by surprise when she agreed to be part of a devotional music show, Om Shanti Om, earlier this year. "I am a spiritual person," Sinha reasons about the show that sees contestants belt out contemporary versions of bhajans. "The concept excited me. It is an interesting way to enable the youth to reconnect with our culture. Today, we primarily listen to rock, jazz and other genres."
