Sonakshi Sinha draws inspiration from 'fantastic' Konkana Sen

New Delhi: Actor Sonakshi Sinha, who feels fortunate to share screen space with actor Konkana Sen in her upcoming film 'Akira', believes that acting with a personality like the latter is very inspiring.

Konkana, who has become very choosy about scripts and has disappeared from silver screens, was last seen in Jaydeep Sarkar's short film 'Nayantara's Necklace,' but soon she will appear in 'Akira.'

"She is a fantastic actor and amazing person to work with. When she is with you in your frame, you automatically get inspired to do better in your work because of the work she has done in past and the kind of actor she is. It was a very good experience with her," Sonakshi told ANI when asked about her experience of working with the 'Page 3' actress.

Sonakshi, who was present in the national capital for India's launch of sports apparel brand New Balance, will be seen in a different avatar for the AR Murugadoss' film.

She has also taken self-defense classes to give realistic feel to her character in the film and feels that every girl should learn a form of martial arts.

Apart from ' Akira', Sonakshi will be seen in ' Force 2' with John Abraham.
