Yeah..acting wise Katty's No 1 position was hard to digest.. i guess a rocking hot body is enough to take you places in Bollywood as far as actresses are concerned..

Some luck ,some hardwork and a superstar bf too.

Top? She herself is not ambitious enough, so I doubt she can be, but she does good roles and movies and that enough for the fans. Good luck for her upcoming projects.

You are right that there is a difference between bombshell and girl next door. Sonam definitely is not in the category of Kat, DP or PC. She does not have their sex appeal. I don't think girl next door image is a complete deterrent to commercial success. Juhi Chawla too had the personal of the bubbly sweet girl. She was a Miss India, but she wasn't perceived as bombshell. She carved a niche for her personality and did have commercial success in an era dominated by Madhuri. Even Preity Zinta was viewed as a sweet lovable personality than a sexy one. I think there is a good market of guys as well as family audiences who prefer girl next door to bombshell. I feel Amrita Rao didn't pick the right roles and thus faded. I do think Sonam does have some of the quirky aspects of Juhi's personality. The problem is that she doesn't have the sweetness that people expect. The prevailing expectation seems to be that if you are cute with simple girl next door looks, you need to be sweet as well. Sassy and outspoken is not for the cute and simple ones. It is for the bombshells

True but Sonam isn't particularly a girl next door type either. Which I feel is her main problem seeing how Indian audiences almost *need* to box their actresses.

Sonam doesn't fit exactly into a sweet, spunky girl next door type. Neither is she the bubbly, cute personality. Neither is she the sexy siren.

She is a combination of all 3, of which the least is the last category I mentioned. So One doesn't know how categorize her.

This could've worked in her favour splendidly-She could've used that chameleon quality to morph into any character she required to- For one teeny glitch 😆- She just doesn't have the Talent.

So the end result is the Sonam we have today- The foremost Luxury Fashionista, not a A grade star, but can never be a B grade one either.

Since when was Kareena and Deepika were offered roles. They go begging at other's people feet. Kareena isn't even that great of an actress. Neither is Deepika. They both ham at whatever they do. They aren't even consistent with their performances.

Sonam is good at whatever she's doing. She doesn't claim she wants to be number one. She does claim, "she's an IKAUN." in Fashion.

@ Red .. interesting.. and if that was the case, Sonam would have been an onscreen goddess.. 😆

@ blue .. on the contrary , its only too easy to categorize her.. a small group of fan- girls love her, they have their reasons & errr, that's about it..

@ pink .. another interesting hypothesis, well I am not sure about her 'talent' but she certainly isn't naturally equipped to be a chameleon by any stretch of the imagination.. so the talent is clearly not just the only tiny glitch..
