India's hugely accomplished male dancer Prabhu Deva recently shot a Janmashthmi dahi handi-breaking song called Go Govinda in Akshay Kumar's Oh My God.

Giving him company was Sonakshi Sinha, who worked really hard to get her moves right.

"Sonakshi dances really well," Prabhu Deva says. "She has great timing and wonderful grace. The last time I enjoyed keeping pace with someone so much was Madhuri Dixit when we did the Que Sera Sera number in Pukar."
