From the time she entered Bollywood in 2007 with "Saawariya", Sonam Kapoor Ahuja mostly courted the limelight as a fashionista and a highly-opinionated person rather than with her acting skills -- till "Neerja" in 2016 changed that opinion for many.
Sonam, along with other Bollywood stars was invited by PM Narendra Modi for the release of a cultural video with the theme 'Change Within' to mark the 150th birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi. The Zoya Factor actress opted for a gold and ivory saree by Sabyasachi. She shared her several pictures on her social media handle, captioning them with quotes by Gandhi. However, in the process of uploading pictures, the actress forgot to press enter and the caption reads as 'Mahatma Gandhi Saree'.
"Initially I was disheartened to face criticism for no reason. There were times people criticised me and did not take me seriously because I love fashion and dressing up. I felt bad but I also love acting and the process of moviemaking so much that my passion towards my profession remain a constant drive", Sonam told IANS.
"I love acting and fashion. I make every choice from my self-belief, and when you are driven by passion you are bound to get positive results. I have learnt to be patient and realised that patience is the greatest virtue in life", she added.
Sonam Kapoor Ahuja's last release "The Zoya Factor" failed at the box-office.
