Sonam Kapoor shed a lot of weight to enter films, but still finds comfort in eating junk food.
Gone are the times when talented young girls needed to shed their inhibitions to enter Bollywood. These days they just shed their weight. Girls don't grow up with inhibitions any more, we guess, they just grow up with a lot of weight.
Sonam pioneered the swap-weight-for-a-film role trend with her Saawariya (2007) debut. Now debutante Sonakshi Sinha is in the news for having pulled it off for Dabangg.
More commendable then her losing weight - Sonam has managed to stay slim after doing so, but it hasn't been easy.
Her cravings haven't gone.
"I feel bad when I can't gorge on things that I want to have," she tells DNA in an interview..
"Like right now, I'd rather have choco-chip muffins, but they (her staff) refuse to indulge me. That's how life is now," she laments.
Not being able to gorge on junk-food torments Sonam.
"I absolutely love junk food. Give me a packet of chips and chocolates any day. I love eating those biscuits that have jam in the center. I love junk food. Period. It's not for nothing that it's called comfort food. There are times when we absolutely need it as it has an emotional connect to it," she adds.
We just hope the lackluster performance of all four of her films so far doesn't weaken her resolve and force her to seek comfort in food once again, because she is very talented, not to mention beautiful and stylish.
Sonam is currently on a break in the US with her sister Rhea, She recently wound up filming for Thank You and will next start the second schedule of Mausam in Mumbai in September.
We wonder, if there is more to her trip to the US than chilling out with her sister. Perhaps, a screen test for a certain Hollywood film that her father, Anil Kapoor, recently alluded to.
Sonam's publicist tells us there is nothing more to it, but then we didn't expect her to spill the beans even if there was, knowing her to be thoroughly professional.
