She’s spunky, she’s amorous, she’s statuesque and Bollywoods’s only fashionista Sonam Kapoor, makes heads turn every time she walks in. Her fans go gaga over her immense sense of style and lately this prima donna has achieved a lot more than her potentials.
Sonam Kapoor, who was born on June 09, 1985, turns a year old today, and yes she is one of the leading contemporary actresses of Bollywood. She Started her career as an assistant director in the year 2005, Sonam Kapoor had no plans of becoming an actress. The beautiful lady has studied Political science and Economics from University of East London, and who knew that one day she would dapper at the silver screen flaunting her flawless acting skills.
Sonam being a star child, had a grand debut in Bollywood, and was starred opposite Bollywood’s current heartthrob Ranbir Kapoor in Sanjay Leela Bhansali‘s Saawariya. The film was a moderate success at the box office, and Sonam‘s performance in the film received mixed reviews. Her second film was Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra‘s off-beat drama Delhi 6, where she was paired opposite Abhishek Bachchan in her second outing at celluloid. This film too fell flat at the box office, but this time Sonam was capable enough to convince critics that she is here to stay.
After a low phase in her career, Sonam finally proved her acting potential in the films, Raanjhnaa and Bhaag Milkha Bhaag, and her acting prowess was hugely acclaimed and she landed up in the top list of B-town actresses. Her role of Zoya Haider in the movie Raanjhnaa earned her huge accolades and nominations for best actress at various Award functions, one of which was Filmfare.
She is cited to be one of the best dressed celebs of Indian Film Industry and she never fails to make a fashion statement every time she faces the camera off-screen. Sonam Kapoor is also a proud ambassador of L’Oreal, and she represents the brand magnificently at the Cannes Film Festival every year. Not only in India but also at Cannes, people were stunned with Sonam‘s choice of ensemble, doubtless her fashion sense is just incomparable.
Sonam Kapoor is now stepping into her 29th year, and recently giving two back to back hits at the box office, we don’t see any sign of her looking back. We hereby wish this dazzling Diva a very Happy Birthday and loads of good luck for her upcoming future projects.
