Has Mollywood found its new Shakeela in Sona?

Sona Heiden, who made her debut in a Tamil movie starring Ajith years ago has been seen in a few Tamil and Malayala movies and on television since then.  She is now in the news for an interesting reason.

Sona has acted in a new Malayalam movie titled ‘Pacha Manga’ in which she has played the wife of veteran actor Pratap Pothen.  The trailer of the film has been released and it contains bedroom scenes involving Sona.  Certain sections of the media have started speculating that Sona is the new Shakeela in Malayalam soft porn films.

On her part, Sona Heiden has clarified that the film comes with an emotional content made in a sensitive and sensuous fashion.  ”Just looking at my costumes, many have assumed that I have played a glamorous role, which is untrue. I have just replicated the way women dress in Kerala and haven’t crossed any limits,” she said.  

She added, “Therefore, I request not to spread such rumours that I am playing soft-porn roles. This is a good film with a unique theme and so will be my character, which audience will agree after watching the movie”.
