New Delhi: Actress Sonam Kapoor Ahuja, who has completed a decade-long journey in the Hindi film industry, says she chooses good work over fame and stardom.
The daughter of actor-producer Anil Kapoor ventured into the world of filmmaking in 2005 as an assistant director for Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s movie Black.
She made her acting debut two years later in Saawariya. Ever since her debut she has featured in over a dozen films comprising commercially successful ones like Khoobsurat, Neerja and Prem Ratan Dhan Payo.
Asked if she feels that stardom comes with a price tag, Sonam said: “I have never gone for fame or stardom. I have always gone for good work. So when you are not seeking something out, there is no price tag attached to it. It just comes naturally.”
Sonam has featured in films of a variety of genres like romance, comedy, drama, biographical thriller and biographical comedy-drama among many others. But she said it was never a conscious choice to do genres of films as different as chalk and cheese.
After Neerja, which got her universal acclaim, does she feel pressurised in selecting films?
“I don’t take any kind of pressure. It’s just a matter of what makes me feel passionate about. It could be anything,” said the 32-year-old actress.
She will next be seen in her upcoming home production Veere Di Wedding, which also features Kareena Kapoor Khan, Swara Bhasker and Shikha Talsania.
