Mumbai, Jan 5: While Ranveer Singh is basking in the glory of his performance in 'Bajirao Mastani', actress Sonakshi Sinha feels the actor is going to sweep all the awards this year.

sonakshiRanveer essayed the role of Maratha warrior Peshwa Bajirao 1 in the Sanjay Leela Bhansali directed period-drama. When asked which performances she liked in the year 2015, Sonakshi told reporters, "Varun (Dhawan) did a fantastic job in 'Badlapur', actually the entire team of Nawazuddin, Yami and Divya Dutta. Other than that, I think Ranveer in Bajirao was something else. I have no words for it. I think he is going to win all the awards this year."

The 28-year-old actress was speaking at the press conference of 61st Britannia Filmfare Awards 2015. Sonakshi, who made her Bollywood debut opposite superstar Salman Khan in 'Dabangg', said she never wanted to be an actress but 'Chak De India' and 'Aaja Nachle' were two films that inspired her.

"Growing up I never wanted to be an actor. I neither grew up on films, nor on watching performances... But, when I was in school or college, 'Chak De India' had released. The actor who played the 'hatti-katti' Punjabi hockey player, I saw that and thought it would be fun to play this role."That was the first instance I ever imagined myself wanting to play a role. Other than that, 'Aaja Nachle' of Madhuri Dixit, I watched the entire film and I was blown. I said if I'll dance I'll dance like that (in the film) otherwise I won't."

The actress is currently elated with the response to her maiden single 'Aaj mood Ishqholic hai' and plans to sing more songs in the future. "I don't want it to be a one-off thing. Music i something I am very passionate about. The response to the song has been fantastic so that gives me the confidence to do more in that space, do more songs. It's basically a passion project," she added.

Mumbai, Jul 31: Maharashtra Leader of Opposition and BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis on Friday said that the Enforcement Directorate should carry out an investigation in actor Sushant Singh Rajput's suicide case.

"There is a huge public sentiment about handing over #SushantSinghRajput case to CBI but looking at the reluctance of State Government, atleast @dir_ed ED can register an ECIR since misappropriation and money laundering angle has come out," tweeted Fadnavis.

Meanwhile, Union Minister Ram Vilas Paswan said that no FIR had been registered in Maharashtra yet and that the case must be handed over to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).

"There is a confrontation between two states and there has been no FIR registered yet in Maharashtra. Chirag (Paswan) had spoken to CM Thackeray that there should be CBI probe. All political leaders are demanding for it. It should be handed over to CBI," Paswan said.

A team of the Bihar Police that arrived in Mumbai on Tuesday, recorded statements of two persons, including actor Sushant Singh Rajput's sister, on Wednesday in connection with the case.

An FIR was filed by Sushant Singh Rajput's father against actor Rhea Chakraborty in Bihar on Tuesday.

Rajput was found dead in his Mumbai residence on June 14.
