MUMBAI: Actress Sonakshi Sinha has shot down reports that she had posed in a bikini for the cover of Maxim magazine.

"Quite shocked to see India Today carrying an article on me appearing on Maxim in a bikini!! Yeah right," Sonakshi wrote on microblogging site Twitter.

A photograph published on India Today's website shows Sonakshi wearing a white bikini but the magazine's cover shows her wearing a black dress.

"These guys generally have their facts and figures right! Got the fact that I'm on Maxim right, but the figure (pun intended) completely wrong! Would've been smart if they checked out the magazine before writing whatever they felt like. It's not about me anymore but about their credibility," she added.

Sonakshi, who made her Bollywood debut as a simple village girl with ‘Dabangg’, had made it clear that she would never wear revealing clothes in her films.

The newcomer is set to dramatically alter her onscreen image with her next two films – ‘Kick’ (which stars Salman Khan), and the Akshay Kumar starrer ‘Joker’.
