"I am half-Sindhi and Half-Peshawari, so it's heartbreaking to see that part of my culture is something that I can't explore as well because of that [the conflict]," says Sonam.
"My name is Sonam. I was named when my parents went to Kashmir and were there for a while. They were shooting for Ram Lakhan - my dad was shooting for that, and they decided to name me from there. I haven't been [to the Valley] since then because of the unrest. I hope there is a peaceful way of working things out. I don't know how that's possible, but I think there should be, because it's a beautiful place but I think it's been under so much duress, and I don't think anybody knows who's right now. I don't think they themselves know who is right," the actress says in the interview.
Sonam saying that her family has strong links to Pakistan has got many netizens irked. While some people resorted to downright abuse, others raked up Sonam's comments on Pakistani artistes from the past.

I think only nationalist/ deshbhakt actors/celebrities are left untouched. Sonakshi gets trolled for not knowing Ramayana (her father - Congress previously BJP) Alia got trolled (Her father mahesh bhatt - critique of the govt)
Even the economy rate is only 5%, still twitter trolls only have time to bash celebrities. How is the future of India going to be with all NRC in Assam and hindi imposition.
Has priorities changed? Opinions only one directional ? Rest trolled/abused. .Tyranny.
