Sonal Chauhan is all set to pop the champagne. After cutting three cakes on her birthday on May 16, yes, the same day as her debut film Jannat's release, Sonal Chauhan has received the best birthday gift ever. " Jannat has opened to 100 percent." gushes the ecstatic newcomer. Sonal who's already made waves in the modeling industry has now been accepted with open arms by Bollywood too. She's bagging offers galore and now has hit box office gold with the stupendous opening of Jannat.

Says Sonal, " It is the best birthday gift I have ever received. Jannat has released on my birthday and I've been told that its doing really well. Apparently, Jannat has fetched the biggest start after RAAZ, for the Bhatts.". The Bhatts seem to have a winner on hand and so does Sonal!

In fact so happy are they that they have signed Sonal for their next after Jannat, Raaz 2 the sequel to Raaz. Not many know that Sonal replaced Esha Deol in Jannat. Esha's loss is Sonal's gain!
