I do not know how this message will be taken. Let me open with a disclaimer - Am neither a ash fan nor a sonam fan. I like Ash for the dignity she has conducted herself with and Sonam for her spunk.

Having said that - My very close cousin is in Marketing and PR division of L'oreal. Ash did have a small hand in Sonam not going to Cannes. L'oreal was already upset with how Sonam's remarks about the generation gap was presented to Media and they felt Sonam should not have used that term as it created unnecessary bad name to their brand ambassadress. Ash was asked to decide if Sonam can come to Cannes and She said a categorical NO after these events. But..To her credit she also let the final decision to L'oreal, but she said personally she would not want Sonam to attend Cannes after this Gen Gap statement as she felt that the statement will hold good if Sonam does attend Cannes. L'oreal took the call and Sonam was asked not to go and also informed Sonam to give thoughtful statements to press keeping in mind how Media can twist even normal statements.

Please no Bashing. I really do not think Ash or Sonam is at wrong here. Each were correct in their own right.

Now this version of the story sounds more logical and I don't see anyone at fault here if this story is true.

Is Ash forgetting she's in her 30's and Sonam in 20's?😆 So there is generation gap.

Thanks for the info. This definitley makes more sense. I'm sure Sonam will find more interesting projects in the future. Besides i really dont hold anything against Sonam for that statement. To some extent it is true.

Thanks. This one looks more logical.

Ash did what she thought was right. She has her positiona nd reputation to take care of even if she is old and there is a generation gap. We have never heard of nay comments like this in west.
Sonam. even though I am a fan of hers, I think she needs a crash course in what she says in public. She lacks that. And now I wonder that with a big brand it is going to always affect Sonam if she is not able to trap that mouth of her. I saw her on It's friday and wondered the same.
But I guess no one is at fault. Sonam said that in her spunk and immature way. Ash did that to protect herself. She must have seen the future in crystal ball - if Sonam went there the media would have gone bersek praising her and bringing down Ash...calling her old, finished, married adn what not.

Thank you for this Lavy.

Lovanika, i completely agree with you, even though Ash is "old" and there is a generation gap between the two, it (ageing)is seen as something unnatural in our country. The media has never been kind to 30 + actresses and see how this one comment from Sonam was blown out of proportion. What Ash did is understandable. Not Sonam's fault here, I guess shes just a little immature and still doesnt understand how this industry works.
