Actor Sonakshi Sinha is clearly not just a beauty - the 23-year-old has some talent up her sleeve too. While in the Capital for an event on Friday, she showed off her fashion designing skills when she sketched an impromptu outfit for actor Ranbir Kapoor, 28.

The two were here with tennis ace Sania Mirza for the Mindmine Summit 2011. During the session, Sonakshi, who not many know has a degree in fashion designing, was asked to create an outfit for Ranbir. Doing away with his Rockstar get-up, Ranbir was wearing a Nehru jacket with a kurta and denims.

As she designed, Ranbir pulled her leg, saying, “Hope you will design something more than just a towel (referring to his towel dance in the film Saawariya).”

In five minutes, Sonakshi created a sketch showing a sleeveless trendy kurta and dhoti. "I am actually quite surprised that you (Ranbir) are wearing a Nehru jacket. So, I thought of designing this traditional outfit. It will suit you," she said, while handing him over the sketch.

Ranbir, who took an immediate liking for the outfit, couldn’t stop flaunting it to the shutterbugs.
