Bollywood actress Sonam Kapoor made her debut in the industry with Sanjay Leela Bhansali's 'Saawariya' which also starred Ranbir Kapoor in the lead. Post that one film, the actress and filmmaker have yet to come together for another film. Talking about working with Sanjay Leela Bhansali again, the actress said, "I don't think I am his kind of actor. That's what it is. I am eternally grateful to him for giving me my debut but I just don't think I am his kind of an actor. If he thought I suited something, I am sure he'll cast me again."
She added, ''In this day and age if you aren't responsible for what you are a part of, shame on you. Especially when you are in an influential position. If we lived in a Utopian society, one could argue that you can do art for art's sake. But we don't. You are influencing so many people, you have to take ownership of it. I don't believe in censoring anyone but as far as I am concerned, I cannot be a part of something that is racist, sexist, homophobic, or just regressive."
She continued, "I've worked with the best. For Mehra sir, I am willing to bend backward. With some people, you just share a great relationship. It's easy. I know what they want, and they know what I can deliver.'' Stay tuned for more updates.
