My father cut me off when I was 18: Sonam Kapoor

We are usually depended on our parents for many things. Be it materialistic or emotional needs or merely taking decisions; our parents are our guiding lamp. But, what happens if this bond gets cut off? Something similar happened with actress Sonam Kapoor when she turned 18!

During a recent interview with Tara Sharma, Sonam Kapoor shared an incident when her daddy dearest cut off all ties with her, persuading her to take her own decision in her personal as well professional life when she turned 18. Also, that "every misstep and every triumph" in her Bollywood journey has been her own.

When asked about the perks of being the daughter of an actor, she said: "My father cut me off when I was 18... He said you want to become an adult, become an adult."

"I had to take responsibility and I did ... and it is one of the best things anybody has ever done for me. You know he said that I never want to make a decision for you. I can tell you what is right or what is wrong but at the end you have to make your own decision."

Even for the downfalls she faced, she is thankful of her father to have let her learn through them and that she loves her father for taking this firm decision.

"I love it, because I can attribute a lot to my father ... but every decision that I made in my career, every misstep and every triumph has all been my own."

On a concluding note when she was asked about the choice of her career, she said that even though she aspired to be like her father, she never really wanted to be an actor initially.

She also mentioned how she would like to start a family some day, but isn't looking to settle down any time soon.
