It is time Sonam did something to earn the cover of a film magazine..not be addressed as Anil Kapoor's daughter or as the Saawariya girl.

Money and contacts can get her designer clothes,make her a page 3 fixture,but not get films.Infact Bollywood runs away from them.

Deepika was spotted in an excellent Himesh video,Bipasha in a Sonu Nigaam video,Anushka went for an audition.What Saawariya a full length film couldn't do for Sonam,can these paid appearances,photoshoots,write ups by Renuka Vythare,or Kunal Shah do it?

Bollywood is only too familiar with all this,and cynical .

Sonam should stop all this and make rounds of producers offices,give auditions,work on her voice,get her eyebrows redone,get a new hairstylist,learn how to play up her weakest feature-her eyes,etc etc.It will eventually pay off.

We're not talking about Ranbir here, we're talking about Sonam. And in my opinion, she's handling this all wrong. Me knowing how the media works is irrelevant, although by the way I do have a degree in journalism so I believe I MIGHT know how it works.
Don't get so defensive about Sonam. You might love her to death but there are a lot of people who don't or who like me are going from liking her to not liking her to hopefully plain ol' disinterest. I think she's doing herself a disservice by not only continuing to talk about Ranbir but also changing her tune. In one interview I read she claimed they were never dating but , and I quote, "if we're both single in the future who knows?". And NOW she's saying he isn't her type??/ C'mon Sonam. Pick a story and stick to it.

People's types do change, and no one knows what the future holds.

I agree, although she is seen attending events, she does need to be signing films (Saawariya being her only release is what she is known for) and finding her own ground in the Industry, but at the same time it's often difficult for star kids to break that link when they have a successful parent in the same profession - but that change doesn't come instantly, it takes time.

Money and contacts can get her designer clothes,make her a page 3 fixture,but not get films.Infact Bollywood runs away from them. I don't think she's really a page 3 fixture, she's only appeared for two fashion shows and a breast cancer campaign

Deepika was spotted in an excellent Himesh video,Bipasha in a Sonu Nigaam video,Anushka went for an audition.What Saawariya a full length film couldn't do for Sonam,can these paid appearances,photoshoots,write ups by Renuka Vythare,or Kunal Shah do it? Well she got Dilli 6 because of Saawariya, and apparently she is working on films but she's not allowed to talk about them

Sonam should stop all this and make rounds of producers offices,give auditions,work on her voice,get her eyebrows redone,get a new hairstylist,learn how to play up her weakest feature-her eyes,etc etc.It will eventually pay off. Wasn't it reported that she had been seen visiting Yash Chopra? A new hairstyle would be interesting but her eyebrows are so Audrey!😆

Sadly, no matter what she does, the tag of being Anil Kapoor's daughter is going to stay on for a very very long time just like how in every single article, Ranbir is mentioned to be from the great Kapoor family being Raj Kapoor's grandson. It's not their fault that they are tagged as that.

A page 3 fixture??? Hahahaha Sonam was NO where to be seen for almost a year because she was too busy shooting for a MOVIE.......she only came out like what last month??? And now she's a page 3 fixture? A page 3 fixture is someone who only goes around attending parties. Sonam actually is doing some work.....she's the new face of Anamika Khanna and Levi's just like how some actresses might be faces of shampoos, soft drinks, etc. Them doing the ads on tv make them a page 3 fixture? Do the directors run away from them? NO because it's part of their job........Sonam's advertisements require her to walk the ramps.......it's part of her job.

And please like shes' the only actress thats on magazine covers...........I see more of Deepika, Bipasha, Katrina (esp. her), etc on every single cover out there but when they do it, it's promoting themselves which you need in Bollywood but when Sonam does it she's being a page 3 fixture? Such double standards.

Sonam worked as an assistant director for Sanjay Leela Bhansali for 2 years! She did much more hard work to be in his movie. And I beg to differ, Saawariya did a lot for Sonam. Granted the movie failed but she didn't go totally unoticed. In this case, even Aishwarya should stop coming in movies cause her first movie failed, and oh Katrina's boom failed too and OMG Kajol, the great Tanuja's daughter's first movie flopped as well......but people didn't come out to them and gave them a chance still and some of them happen to be great actresses at the moment. Well some.

Sonam has signed a lot of movies which she can't talk about until the right time just like any other actress isn't allowed to talk about her upcoming movies until everything is confiremd. She has taken a one movie at a time route which I must say is qutie admirable so early in her career because in this industry when actresses sign any movie they can when they start out, she's not. She can easily use being Anil Kapoor's daughter to her advantage and use those connections to sign movies as well.

How come nobody is paying attention to her last quote from that interview?

Oh also, umm the headline, you do know the EDITOR picks out which quote to put on the cover, not the subject.
