Sonakshi hopes for double whammy with Akshay

Actress Sonakshi Sinha is hoping that "Joker", her second film with Akshay Kumar, replicates the success of their first movie "Rowdy Rathore".

"If this film gets a push because of our previous film ('Rowdy Rathore'), then it would be a good thing for us and our producers, who are the same, UTV. If a pair has worked then it will definitely benefit in future as well," two-film-old Sonakshi said here in an interview.

So far she has had two releases - "Dabangg" and "Rowdy Rathore" - and both have entered the Rs.100 crore club.

When asked if she considers himself a lucky charm, the 25-year-old said: "As far as the lucky charm tag is concerned, you have given me that tag and tomorrow it will be someone else."

Her "Rowdy Rathore" and "Joker" co-star Akshay says there is no such thing as lucky or unlucky.

"When films work, then everyone becomes a lucky charm. If you (the reporter) also do a character role in our film and it works, then you will also become a lucky charm. Everyone is a lucky charm," the 44-year-old said.

"It is an artificial thing, lucky or unlucky. Be it a boy or a girl, he is lucky. It's just in your mind," he added.

Sonakshi is currently shooting for "Dabangg 2", "Lootera" and "Son of Sardar".
