Sonam and Imran on Filmfare

Although both Sonam Kapoor and Imran Khan were lauded for their work in their debut movies, I don’t see them go too far. Probably they will be there for another half a dozen movies, and slowly disappear from the screens and our memory.

Sonam Kapoor at FICCI

Sonam Kapoor was seen at the FICCI Frames 2008, the annual convention of the media and entertainment industry. Sonam Kapoor and Yash Chopra officially inaugurated the convention, which is a three day event, in Powai, Mumbai yesterday.

More such photos of Sonam Kapoor from FICCI can be found at bollyone.com

Why is Sonam looking so ordinary? She definitely needs to glamorize herself, or else she would end up being one of the wannabe star kids who never made it big. We have seen her wild party pictures, so we know that she is not that innocent after all. Wink.

Sonam Kapoor Photo Gallery

Good girl Sonam Kapoor’s wild side

These pictures are from a private party where our innocent looking Sonam Kapoor partied like there is no tomorrow. Various media reports indicate that these photos of Sonam partying hard were hacked from her facebook account.

What is happening these days? Is Bollywood going the Hollywood way? Few days back, we had Aishwarya Rai’s passport all over the web and now it is Sonam Kapoor’s private party pictures.  If this trend continues, we would be soon seeing photos of Salman Khan getting slapped by Sangeeta Bijlani, Somi Ali, Aishwarya and Katrina Kaif. So, there are so many interesting things to see in the future. Wink.

Coming back to Sonam Kapoor, give the poor girl a break. She is already sidelined by the media due to Deepika Padukone’s affairs. To top it all, Deepika won all the awards for ‘newcomer female’. And now these pictures would add more misery to her already shattered dream launch. Hope her next movie with Abhishek does well.

I’m like a horse with blinkers – Sonam Kapoor

Sonam Kapoor the star of Saawariya opens her heart. Sonam speaks about her father Anil Kapoor, her holiday plans, her expectations with Saawariya, and much more.

“I’m like a tap,” says Sonam Kapoor, about her histrionic ability to turn on laughter and tears instantly, at the thud of clapboard. “I can cry and laugh really fast.”

I don’t doubt that, but this is as good an opportunity as any to put the hyperactive newcomer on the spot. Cry, I say. “Uh, right now? Like, right-right now? You’re serious?” Sonam, smiling yet visibly confused, for one brief second, interprets the silence as solemn. Her lower lip quivers half an inch before I grin and she promptly breaks into hysterical laughter. Damn, how I wish we had video.

There is, shall we say, a lot of the aforementioned manic laughter in a conversation with this girl. Daughter to Anil and Sunita Kapoor, Sonam makes her motion picture debut in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Saawariya, barely a fortnight away. I’m sitting in her palatial drawing room in Mumbai’s starry Juhu suburb, massive canvases across the walls, ornate sofa arrangements and coffee tables adorned with much bric-a-brac. The tall heroine walks in, yawning and grinning at the same time, apologizes for being asleep and begs someone to get her coffee.

I should have known she didn’t need any. As if dropped into a cauldron of Red Bull as a baby, this girl is breathlessly full of beans and immensely wired, to say the least. So yes, when she says the toughest part of acting in Saawariya was being still, you believe her. “And I had to be still a lot. And I’m usually in emotional havoc all the time.”

Right now, the film has massive buzz. Not just is it one of those Bollywood events, a Sanjay Bhansali movie, but it is Sony Pictures’ first Indian production.

The budget has been massive and the hype machine is in complete overdrive, readying for the mega release on November 9. “It’s been overwhelming, sort of. It’s like a riot of emotions inside me. But it’s fun.” And the scary bit? “I’m the sort of person who feels everything at the same time, I feel too much. Every emotion is heightened, I’m an extreme person,” admits Sonam. “And I think that’s scary.”

Obsessed with cinema and all things creative, Sonam went to the United World College in Singapore, dabbling more with art direction. “I never really got into acting,” she smiles, vocally italicizing the word as she seems to do all relatively unreal, larger-than-life words — actress, Bollywood, Salman. “I did monologues for plays and stuff but that’s because I wrote the monologues. Otherwise, I never wanted to be an actor. A dancer maybe, not an actor.”

Bhansali changed that when she came aboard his last film, Black, as one of many Assistant Directors — including her Saawariya co-star Ranbir. “The first day I came to work on the sets and sir looked at me and said, `you’re an actress.’ So the seed was in my brain, and then I realized `Hmm, I like what Amitji and Rani are doing in front of the camera, I’m a little more interested in that, maybe.’”

Sonam Kapoor and Ranbir Kapoor make quite an Impact

Sonam Kapoor and Ranbir Kapoor are making such a huge impact that even King Khan says, ‘I’m scared of Saawariya’. Ranbir Kapoor with his boyish look and Sonam Kapoor with her sweet girl look are already a rage in bollywood. Everything seems to be going in favor of Saawariya.

If rumors are to be believed, Ranbir kapoor has dumped his girl friend Deepika Padukone in favor of Sonam Kapoor. Ranbir Kapoor was questioned by Shaan on the relationship at Star Voice of India Show, but Ranbir shrugged off saying that he and Sonam are childhood friends and there is nothing between them. Should we believe you, Ranbir?

Sonam Kapoor and Ranbir Kapoor attended a press conference to announce their association with a retail chain. We have some exclusive photos from the press conference.
