Sonam Kapoor who turns Indian princess for Sooraj Bhajartya’s Prem Ratan Dhan Payo, shot to fame ever since she made her big Bollywood debut. Even though the actress became a global fashion icon and a star overnight, she continues to remain grounded to her roots.
While she has always been Bollywood’s favorite girl-next-door, Sonam Kapoor, in real-life too is a complete family girl at heart. Working around the clock, on a choc-o-bloc schedule ,is second nature to the actress but so is spending quality time with her family.
While shooting for Prem Ratan Dhan Payo in Karjat, the actress would drive back post pack ups to visit her parents and would spend time with them over the weekend.
She even wrapped up her shoots early, so that she could be in Mumbai during the Ganesh Chaturthi season, to help her mother with all the arrangements.

Sonam accompanied her father, superstar Anil Kapoor to San Fransico for the Make A Wish Foundation event, where they were also joined by Sunita Kapoor.

Says Sonam, “It actually was easy for me to become a Rajshri heroine given the environment I’ve grown up in. We have a large family and we all really love each other. It is important for people to have that kind of love and support in today’s world. Our parents took the time to know us, embraced and nurtured that”.
