O come on, she can’t do that to herself! Words like petite and svelte cannot be associated with actress Sonakshi Sinha. Let’s put it this way: she is on the prettier side of heavy. She is not fat, but not slim either. So it came as a surprise to see Sonakshi S post her picture on Instagram in which she is captured performing a handstand. Apparently, she achieved the feat without much trouble, however, once she was done with the act, her wrist started to hurt, preventing her from taking part in film shoots for a couple of days.

Dear Sonakshi S, your hands cannot be a substitute for your feet… your poor burdensome feet.
