Sonu Sood Wants to Maintain Balance Between Bollywood and Southern Cinema

Sonu Sood Wants to Maintain Balance Between Bollywood and Southern Cinema
In 2009, Sonu received Andhra Pradesh State Nandi Award for Best Villain and Filmfare Best Supporting Actor Award (Telugu) for his work in the Telugu blockbuster, Arundhati

Sonu Sood, who started his acting journey down south, says he wants to strike a balance between the two thriving film industries - Bollywood and southern cinema.

He said that he "started" down south, "so I still do them (southern movies). Southern films give me a chance to choose only a few Hindi films and the best ones. I try to maintain a balance," the 41-year-old said on Monday. "So, I have done around 55-60 films in many languages. Next month there is a Telugu release and then Happy New Year in October," he added.

Happy New Year has been directed by choreographer turned filmmaker Farah Khan, and has an ensemble cast that includes actors Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, Abhishek Bachchan, Boman Irani and Vivan Shah, apart from Sonu.

The film is slated for a Diwali release this year.
