Sonakshi Sinha, who is currently busy promoting her upcoming film Dabangg 3, spoke about how 53-year-old Salman Khan is romancing 21-year-old actress Saiee Manjrekar, who is making her Bollywood debut. When asked about the age gap and if it ever bothered her, she said, "I don't know, actually. I have not thought of it that way." She further also said that one should ask Salman Khan himself the reason behind this. "What is he eating or what is he doing to keep looking so young and keep romancing the younger girls with every film," Sonakshi was quoted.
But when the news portal asked Sonakshi her thoughts on Madhuri Dixit romancing Ishaan Khatter, the actress said, "I don't know. That's a bit odd. Honestly, if I was, I was at an age of 50, I would feel odd romancing a guy who’s 22-years-old. So that’s a personal opinion. So yeah, I don’t know.," Sonakshi told Quint. When asked if it was sexist, the actress concluded by saying, "that just shows what kind of a country we live in."
