Bollywood star Sonam Kapoor, who was on a break from acting for 2 years, is returning to the movies and is clear that she wants to focus on doing two projects every year. Sonam, after two years following her pregnancy, has missed being on the sets and wants to be in front of the camera again.
She reveals, “I took two years off as I was pregnant and then wanted to take some time off with my son. Two years are not done yet and I have signed two projects – one show and one film that I will start working on. It will be released in another year, because that is how films work. Then my idea is to do two pieces of content every year, that’s it, not more because I want to spend time with my family as well.”
Sonam, who has become India’s cultural ambassador to the West, has also attended events for luxury fashion design houses across the globe for many years now as the only Indian to grace such iconic occasions. Recently, she was invited to the British Prime Minister’s reception at 10 Downing Street to represent India and its cultural impact globally.
She says, “International brands are taking Indian actors as brand ambassadors and they are showcasing them more because they realize the power of Indian celebrities to understand how far reaching they are and how far reaching (they can be). It is interesting to see that now since the world is getting smaller because of social media and OTT etc., the recognition is becoming easier.”
