Cant say about BMB.

But Raanjhana definitely did.
As i said in some other thread that it is not easy to leave a mark when u r acting opposite Dhanush in a film, but she managed to do that.
Raanjhana did benefit her a lot, and esp somehow her role broke the stereotypes that female leads cannot be grey or practical but always have to be a glam doll, and a tool of dance and skin show.

agree... raanjhana proved she's a good actor...she played the role of zoya really well😃

BMB was a good movie and I don't even remember Sonam in it

Raanjana was pure thrash . Yeah she was ok but that movie went haywire after 20 minutes . How is this guy gonna do anything for this girl then she has him killed ?????

Was the movie written by 3rd graders 😆 😆

nd the fact that we all hate ZOYA, makes her more successful, becos as an actress her job wa sto make ZOYA grey and selfish.. if we wud feel pity for ZOYA, then that wud mean she cudnt convince us wid the character, but she definitely did ..
ohh, i m getting diverted in Raanjhana mood again.. the bets film of this decade.. i love it.

They both did. Being associated with two critically and commercially successful films does wonders for one's profile and the type of offers that come in afterwards. The fact that she was very much appreciated for her performance in Raanjanha is a great bonus. People know that she CAN act now.


But we'll probably not see the effect of them on her career until 2015, her 2014 slate is movies she signed onto before her success this year.

THANK YOU topic maker, i fully concur with ya! it boils my blood when people credit Sonam for the success of BMB because dude, she barely had a role! even Divya Dutta and the firangi chick had bigger roles than her...and as far as Raanjhaana is concerned, ok I admit she gave her best performance in that film according to her standards(not a compliment) but still her expressions were flat and her dialogue delivery was poor as usual! so her benchmark was pretty low and I have a feeling Raajhaana will just be a fluke because I can foresee her getting slammed for Khoosboorat remake because she will be emulating Rekha and I am sure she will mess it up like the way she butchered Emma! Aisha was a not only a pathetic but Sonam was absolutely horrendous in it 🤢 God bless Jane Austen's soul she was probably rolling in her grave!

Agreed, i was thinking of writing the same thing, all of Sonam's 2014 release are prior Ranjhanna/BMB success. So i dont think we can judge the effect these success has had towards he but im sure it will be a positive one as all BO hits are. She deserves her BO/critical acclaim especially for Ranjhanna, she was convincing as Zoya and her and Dhanush shared a wonderful chemistry. For BMB I don't think she is taking the credit for it as she does for Ranjhanna and if other actress with similar role can take credit for their hit films. Why cant she?.. I can sense this whole BMB topic getting ugly, so i shall stop here...each to their own! *peace*

As a Sonam fan, ive seen potential in her from the very beginning. Yes, her diction/voice modulation can sound bit childish or immature but she could emote her feelings so well. You can sense the character and what they are feeling and thats a great asset as an actor. Aside all that one thing that infruitates me as a fan is that Sonam lacks (or has a less of..) the drive and the competitive streak that her competitors are so full of. In her 6 years of career she has only done about 9 films in comparison to her competitors who have banked about 19/10 films respectively despite one debuting much later than her 😆😆.. I know its not funny but if you compare its quite a difference. Le Sigh!!!.. So as a loyal Sonaholic, I wish to see more of Sonam onscreen. I hope come 2014/2015 with the recent success she gets the opportunity to work with amazing cast/crew. She has it in her to succeed and I hope she does!
