‘Sonam is a self-made star’
Actor Anil Kapoor says his daughter and actress Sonam K Ahuja has worked really hard to achieve everything in her life.
He said, “She has made herself. She has worked hard to become what she is. She is the kind of person who gives a lot of love and affection. And, it comes very naturally to her. She is a very sensitive person.”
He opened up about his daughter in an episode of Famously Filmfare Season 2. The episode aired yesterday on Colors Infinity, Colors Infinity HD, Voot and Jio.
The actor is currently seen sharing screen space with Sonam in Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga. Talking about escaping Bollywood stereotypes, Anil said, “In Woh Saat Din, my role was very unconventional at that point. It was totally opposite to what everybody was doing.”
‘It is a great time to be in the entertainment business. There is a lot happening. People are constantly coming out with new content, be it actors, technicians, writers and directors. So, it is a fantastic time to be around in the industry.’

Actor Aditya Roy Kapur says the failure of his film OK Jaanu hit him hard, adding that it was tough to be optimistic.
While Aditya got success with Aashiqui 2, the actor failed to elicit expected response with projects like London Dreams, Action Replayy, Daawat-e-Ishq, Fitoor and Welcome to New York. Aditya said: “Failure of OK Jaanu hit me hard. It was a tough for me to pick myself up from that situation and then get optimistic again about what’s next.”
The actor talked about it at Karan Johar’s show Koffee with Karan.
