Now Sonakshi is all set to do her first proffesional intimate scene with "good-friend" Ranveer Singh. Ranveer Singh who's roped in opposite Sonakshi in the film "Lootera" will be seen getting intimate on screen with Sonakshi Sinha.

Sonakshi who was seen as a demure village belle in her debut film "Dabangg" was casted a village belle, in 3 more of her upcoming films- Prabhu Deva's "Rowdy Rathore", Shirish Kunder's "Joker" and Dabangg's sequel , "Dabangg 2". The actress apparently is keen to shed her image of a 'gaon ki gori' and is ready to do bold and daring roles.

The actress, who was earlier heard saying “As an actor, change is important”, has reportedly shot for a rather intimate scene with Ranveer Singh in director Vikramaditya Motwane’s film, which is co-produced by Phantom Production House and Balaji Motion Pictures.

An inside source revealed, “Ranveer and Sonakshi have a very intimate scene in the film, which was shot last week in Film City. A special set recreating Dalhousie was constructed. Ranveer and Sonakshi were quite comfortable while filming the scene. Of course, there were a few retakes.” The scene though showing the couple being intimate has been shot aesthitically and is not at all vulgar suggest sources. It appears in one of the songs. In the film, Sonakshi and Ranveer are madly in love. Both of them were very comfortable shooting the scene.

Sonakshi’s decision to do the steamy scene has shocked and awed the industry as she had earlier opted out of projects because such scenes were an important part of the script. The actress, had earlier opted out of Kamal Hasan’s "Vishvaroopam" simply because she was expected to do a similar sequence.
