Sonam Follows Father Anil Kapoor to Buy a Brand New Audi Car

January 07, 2010 By: Biplob Category: Anil Kapoor, Bollywood, Sonam Kapoor

Sonam Kapoor has bought a brand new Audi car recently by her own money and this makes father Anil Kapoor proud. Anil Kapoor was the first Bollywood actor who bought an Audi car in 1988 and now his actress daughter has done the same. Anil Kapoor and his daughter were present at the launching ceremony of the new Audi car in Delhi.

Well, it is really something that would make any father feel happy for his children, but the question is if Sonam Kapoor will be able to follow her father’s footstep to build a successful career in the industry. Anil Kapoor is one of the most popular actors in Bollywood for many years now and it is something that very few actors could accomplish in the industry. Sonam Kapoor fans expect that she would also become as successful as her father.

Jane Austen’s Emma will embodied as Aisha by Sonam Kapoor

October 04, 2009 By: Kamrul Category: Bollywood, Sonam Kapoor

Bollywood has always been influenced by English literature. We have seen some of the movie producers to choose idea from English literature. We may go to see the same thing in Bollywood again. This time, Jane Austen’s most popular and widely read comic novel Emma will be screened. I think you can get the idea that Emma is the main character of this novel. This character will be embodiment of “Aisha”. Who will act in this scene? Sonam Kapoor will play the role of Aisha. There you can find many differences between these two characters. Jane Austen’s Emma was a 19th century rural girl. On the other hand, Aisha is set in the present times in India’s capital Delhi. This movie will be produced by India’s Oscar winner Anil Kapoor and Rhea Kapoor. It is the time to see how Bollywood fans take this movie.

Sonam Kapoor has crowned the title as the best dressed celebrity in India

September 26, 2009 By: Kamrul Category: Bollywood, Sonam Kapoor

Sonam Kapoor is the daughter of renowned Bollywood actor Anil Kapoor. However, she does not introduce herself with it. She has her own fame and popularity to the Hindi movie fans. She has just acted only two movies. So, you can easily understand that she is neither an old actress nor even a strong in the industry of Bollywood. Despite being a new face, she has already beaten Priyanka Chopra, Kareena Kapoor and Katrina Kaif to hold the best dressed celebrity in India following Kareena and Priyanka in the second and third position. It has been revealed by People magazine. The most successful actress Katrina is in the fifth position.

I have not seen her in any ugly looking or body showing dress like other actresses in Bollywood. However, she has proved that decent looking is better than hot looking.

Shah Rukh Khan and Sonam Kapoor on-screen Chemistry in Aditya Chopra’s ‘Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi’

March 18, 2008 By: admin Category: Bollywood, Shah Rukh Khan, Sonam Kapoor

Shah Rukh Khan and Sonam Kapoor are going to working together in Aditya Chopra’s next directorial Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi. After eight years of gap from direction, Aditya is back behind the camera with this movie. The movie is based on the love story between a 40 year old man and a 16 year old girl. Aditya Chopa will produce the movie from the script of himself.

So, it is almost certain that the movie is going to be much awaited movie of this year. Concidering the story of the movie, Aditya was interested to launch a new girl of 16 years of age opposite Shah Rukh Khan. Looking for a tall, fair Punjabi girl with theatric abilities, Aditya Chopra auditioned hundreds of girls from Punjab, but could not find the perfect girl to rope in for the movie. It was then when he thought about Sonam Kapoor and he spoke to Sonam’s father Anil Kapoor regarding signing Sonam for the movie.

Apunka Choice reported:

Without even reading the film’s script, Shah Rukh Khan agreed to be its leading man. And a search was going on for a suitable actress opposite king Khan.

Reportedly, Aditya Chopra, who has also written the film’s script, wanted a Punjabi girl, someone who is tall, fair and good-looking. Auditions of many girls were carried out but none fitted the bill.
It took a while before Adi reportedly realized that Sonam Kapoor was the girl he was looking for.

Aditya Chopra has asked his friend Karan Johar to give him the schedule of Shah Rukh Khan for the movie Khan, which is being directed by Karan Johar, so that Aditya can star the shooting of Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi in May.

Sonam Kapoor debuted though Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s high profile movie Saawariya in 2007. She was definitely lucky to have debuted under the direction of someone like Sanjay. The actress could prove her acting talent in the movie, though the movie failed to live up to the expectation in the box office. The Bollywood damsel is currently working for Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra’s next film Delhi 6. It is certainly a big chance for Sonam Kapoor to bring about a breakthrough in her acting career. Let us see if she could successfully show her acting talent in the movie.

Aditya Chopra Found Sonam Kapoor to Cast Opposite Shah Rukh Khan in ‘Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi’

March 18, 2008 By: admin Category: Bollywood, Shah Rukh Khan, Sonam Kapoor

Aditya Chopra has al last found Sonam Kapoor as the right girl for his first directorial movie in eight years, Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi (God Made The Couple). Shah Rukh Khan and Sonam Kapoor will be paired in the leading roles of the movie. However, director and producer Aditya Chopra wanted to cast a 16-year old newcomer. Searching for the right girl with typical Punjabi look in combination of theatric abilities, Aditya Chopra auditioned hundreds of Punjabi girls, but at last failed to figure out the perfect girl to cast opposite Shah Rukh Khan. As the story goes, the movie revolves around a love between a 40-year-old man and a 16-year-old girl.

India Target reported:

Our sources say, “Aditya Chopra was very keen to have a tall, fair Punjabi girl for the role opposite Shah Rukh Khan. He has himself written the script and knows exactly what he wants in his heroine. The film deals with the love story of a 40-year-old man and a 16-year-old girl. Adi was also very finicky about signing the right girl because he was making his comeback to direction after a gap of eight years and wanted to get everything just so.”

Shah Rukh Khan is now 42, while Sonam Kapoor is 22. So, both of them seem to be very suitable in the movie in terms of their age at least. Sonam Kapoor has already shown her acting talent in her debut film Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Saawariya. With Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi (God Made The Couple), Aditya Chopra is coming back to direction again since his last directorial Mohabbatein was released in 2000. Interestingly, Shah Rukh Khan also played the male lead role of Mohabbatein. The script of Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi is written by Aditya Chopra himself. So, it seems that the movie is going to be one of the biggest hits of 2008.

March 18, 2008 By: admin Category: Bollywood, Shah Rukh Khan, Sonam Kapoor

Following the success of Om Shanti Om, Deepika Padukone once said that she had been lucky enough to have started her filming career opposite a star like Shah Rukh Khan. Well, Sonam Kapoor may not have started her career opposite a star like Shah Rukh’s stature, but she created enough buzz with her natural acting talent in her debut film Saawariya under the direction of Sanjay Leela Bhansali.

Now, reports have it that Sonam Kapoor is also going to star opposite Shah Rukh Khan in Aditya Chopra’s Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi. Yash Raj Films intended to star a 16-year old new girl in the female lead role of the move opposite Shah Rukh Khan. The production house operated a talent hunt program looking for a 16 year old newcomer with a combination of Punjabi looks and histrionic abilities. After interviewing hundreds of girls, Yash Raj Films failed to find out the right girl for the role. Then Sonam Kapoor came into the scene.

Sawf reported:

However, their efforts drew a blank, reports Mumbai Mirror, prompting Aditya Chopra to settle for a young and talented Punjabi girl that the whole country already knew and raved about – Sonam Kapoor.

Sonam’s father Anil Kapoor, himself a talented actor, was receptive to the idea, and several meetings later Sonam was on board.

Production of the film, that will be shot extensively in Greece, Australia and Dubai, will start in June – July for release by the end of 2008.

Sonam Kapoor is currently busy with her shooting schedule for Rakesh Omprakash Mehra’s film Delhi 6 opposite Abhishek Bachchan. Starring against Shah Rukh Khan could be a dream to many. Now, the dream comes true for Sonam Kapoor. Let us see if she can capitalize on it fully and brings out a break through for her career as Deepika Padukone did for herself.

Sonam Kapoor Facing Problems during the Shooting of Delhi 6

March 17, 2008 By: admin Category: Bollywood, Sonam Kapoor

Last year, ahead of the release of Saawariya, Sonam Kapoor hit the newspaper headlines frequently. Her debut film Saawariya could not live up to the expectation in terms of its box office success, though the movie was critically acclaimed. Before the release of Saawariya, Sonam was thought to be the biggest competitor of another youngster Deepika Padukone. However, at this moment, lots of things seem to have been changed and Sonam is not that much focused in the industry now.

It is not that Sonam Kapoor’s performance in Saawariya was not well enough to consider her as one of the emerging star of the tinsel town. It seems that she is not that much lucky that a star needs to be flourished fully. Her co-star in Saawariya, Ranbir Kapoor won the Best Debut Male award in this year’s Filmfare award, while the Female best Debut Award went to Deepika Padukone. Both Ranbir and Deepika are now getting lots of offers from high profile directors and big production houses.

Sonam Kapoor has recently signed for Rakesh Om Prakash Mehra’s upcoming project Delhi 6. However, still she is facing problems. The shooting of the movie was started and everything was going on pretty well until the first Assistant Director of the movie left for USA. In his absence, it was tried to continue the shooting but later on problems coming out and it became impossible to carry on shooting.

One India reported:

The Bitch’s source informs, “It was very difficult to continue with the shoot, owing to this sudden departure of the first AD. Once, while a very important scene of the film was being canned, there was no one to give Sonam her dialogues. And the shot was finalized without Sonam even saying her lines, can you imagine? Rakesh only realized this later and when Sonam was queried about the same, she simply said that nobody gave them to her.”

So, it seems that Sonam Kapoor’s seemingly bright career is being faded. Reports have it that Sonam has been offered to star Anurag Basu’s next project opposite Hrithik Roshan, but she has turned it down because the role offered to her requires to become very sexy. However, Anurag Basu and producer Rakesh Roshan denied it. Whatever it is, the main thing is that Sonam Kapoor is yet to start getting offers from the big production houses in Bollywood.

Anil Kapoor and Daughter Sonam Kapoor together in Bollywood

March 16, 2008 By: admin Category: Bollywood, Sonam Kapoor

Anil Kapoor has avoided television commercials since he joined the showbiz world. The veteran actor always said that he wanted to be remembered with the roles he had played in the movies. However, Anil recently indicated that he was considering the ad offers are being made involving both himself and his youngster daughter Sonam Kapoor.

Sonam Kapoor came into lime light with her debut movie Saawariya last year. She was critically acclaimed for her roles in the movie. The attractive actress is currently involved in Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra’s next project Dilli 6 opposite Abhishek Bachchan. Following her success in the debut film, Sonam Kapoor is getting a flurry of offers from different brands involving her father Anil Kapoor.

Bollywood Mantra reported:

“It’s true I have always refused advertisements until now. But now I am open to them. Sonam and I have been offered a lot of ads together and I am considering them for the first time.”

Anil Kapoor could not yet decide on which brand he and her daughter would promote for as lots of offers are coming in their way at this moment. With Anil’s interest of staring in ads being out, it is almost certain that Anil Kapoor and her daughter Sonam would be offered some more attractive offers in the days to come. Anil might have moved on from his decision thinking off the wellbeing of her daughter Sonam Kapoor.

Though his daughter has entered into the industry, Anil Kapoor is still going on with his ever green look and natural acting skill. The actor’s recent comedy Welcome has been a super hit. Anil’s upcoming movies include Subhash Ghai’s film Black and White and Abbas-Mustan’s Race. So, it seems that father and daughter are now rocking the industry.

March 14, 2008 By: admin Category: Bollywood, Deepika Padukone, Ranbir Kapoor, Sonam Kapoor

Deepika Padukone and Ranbir Kapoor have turned into a celebrity couple in Bollywood. The two rising stars of the industry have gallantly admitted their relationship, giving no space open for media to make gossips. Deepika Padukone and Ranbir Kapoor both have reportedly been linked with others before they started to think about their relationship seriously.

Following her successful debut with the movie Om Shanti Om, for which she received Filmfare Best Debut Female Award this year, Deepika Padukone was involved with cricket star Yuvraj Singh. Report was that both of them were very serious regarding their relationship, but it was Yuvraj’s over suspicious mind that made Deepika think about the relationship once again. In the mean time, Deepika went to Australia for his upcoming movie under the Yash Raj Films banner opposite Ranbir Kapoor. During the shooting days, both of them came closer to each to other. That was the end of Deepika’s affair with Yuvraj Singh.

Ranbir Kapoor was also linked up with her Saawariya co-star Sonam Kapoor. The two were reportedly finding love for each other during the filming of Saawariya, but could not continue due to over strictness of director Sanjay Leela Bhansali. Thus, their affair was stopped in the middle. Ranbir Kapoor later on found Deepika to hold her hands in the parties. Now, the question comes here is that where is space for actress Sonam Kapoor and cricketer Yuvraj Singh.

Rakesh Roshan: We did not Approach Sonam Kapoor

March 14, 2008 By: admin Category: Bollywood, Sonam Kapoor

There is report out that Saawariya star Sonam Kapoor has turned down a role offered to her opposite superstar Hrithik Roshan in a movie named Kites. Producer Rakesh Roshan has recently denied offering the role to Sonam Kapoor saying that the female lead of the movie required knowing Latin, for which he felt it was unnecessary to offer an Indian actress. Rakesh Roshan would give the movie to Gangster famed Anurag Basu to direct the movie.

DNA India reported:

Is it true that you had approached Sonam Kapoor for the lead opposite Hrithik Roshan in your forthcoming production Kites?
A: No, it is not true that we approached Sonam for the role. All the rumours that she turned it down are rubbish. I wanted a girl who speaks Spanish, so there was no question of even asking any Indian heroine.

Brazilian model Barbara Mori would be seen opposite Hrithik Roshan in the movie. According to report, Sonam Kapoor turned down the role because it required a sexy image what she was not interested to do. Sonam Kapoor is just a one movie actress still now. So, it was a bold decision if she really denied the role. It seems Sonam knows very well what she wants to do in front of camera.
