Biography
Sonam Kapoor is an Indian actress born 9 June 1985, daughter of actor Anil Kapoor. She began in 2005 as an assistant director on Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Black, then made her acting debut in Bhansali's romantic drama Saawariya (2007), which flopped at the box office. Her first commercial success came with the romantic comedy I Hate Luv Storys (2010), followed by a string of poorly received roles. The turning point arrived with the 2013 box office hit Raanjhanaa, which earned her Best Actress nominations and critical praise. She then secured major commercial successes in supporting roles in the biopics Bhaag Milkha Bhaag (2013) and Sanju (2018), and a leading role in the romance Prem Ratan Dhan Payo (2015)—the latter two ranking among Bollywood's highest-grossing films. Her acclaimed portrayal of Neerja Bhanot in the 2016 biographical thriller Neerja earned her the National Film Award – Special Mention and a Filmfare Award for Best Actress (Critics). She starred in the 2018 female buddy film Veere Di Wedding, one of the highest-grossing female-led Hindi films, followed by two poorly received projects and a hiatus. Kapoor appeared in Forbes India's Celebrity 100 list from 2012 to 2016. As a Gemini born under life-path 11, she carries traits of both intellectual duality and spiritual insight. Actors in Hindi cinema perform across genres, from romantic dramas to biographical thrillers. Known for her outspoken personality and subject of significant social media attention, Kapoor advocates for breast cancer awareness and LGBT rights. She is married to businessman Anand Ahuja and has two sons.
