Sonam Kapoor second entry into Delhi 6

Sonam Kapoor is second time lucky ,Although her debut vehicle "Saawariya" slumped at the box office. She has bagged Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra's "Delhi 6".

"I'm second time lucky. If I had to choose one filmmaker after Sanjay Leela Bhansali, I'd have chosen Rakeysh Mehra.

I haven't seen his 'Aks', but I fell in love with 'Rang De Basanti'. I went beyond conventional definitions of the heroine in 'Saawariya'. I hope to do the same in 'Delhi 6'. It's a great follow up," Sonam told IANS in an interview.

Asked about other offers, she said: "They're all coming to my father. He's so proud of me. He keeps saying he never knew I could be such a capable actor and handle the media with dignity and grace."

While her father is scanning all the offers, Sonam is concentrating on "Delhi 6".

"How can I think of anything else right now? I need to focus on my second film. I'm going into a different mood and style here."

Sanjay Leela Bhansali's "SAAWARIYA"

Sony Pictures Entertainment and director Sanjay Leela Bhansali are jointly releasing SAAWARIYA, the first Bollywood production from a Hollywood studio. This musical love story features the debuts of Ranbir Kapoor (son of Rishi Kapoor) and Sonam Kapoor (daughter of Anil Kapoor) alongside Indian superstars Rani Mukherjee and Salman Khan. After directing the Shah Rukh Khan-Aishwarya Rai blockbuster “Devdas” and the critically acclaimed drama “Black” starring Mukherjee and the legendary Amitabh Bachchan, Bhansali returns to the big screen with SAAWARIYA which will be released in theaters worldwide on November 9 for the Diwali holiday weekend.

SAAWARIYA is a story of two young star-crossed lovers whose passions almost consume their will to the brink of self-destruction. In this eternal tale of an ode to romance, stand two lonely souls whose childlike innocence and candor only obscures their inner turmoil, anger, anxiety and desperate wait for love. An artist, a free spirit, an idealist and dreamer, Raj, is certain that he has found his ultimate dream when he arrives at a quaint picturesque town.

One silent bright and starry night, he spots a mysterious girl draped in black, standing alone at a bridge. This chance encounter introduces him to Sakina, a shy and quiet, melancholic and enigmatic girl who continues to intrigue him. Thus follows the beginning of a new friendship, where Raj with his most charming ways and an undying spirit tries to win Sakina’s heart.

Through Raj and Sakina’s journey together, we are reminded of the fragility of the human heart. In the couple’s anguish and test of faith, is revealed the power of unconditional love through a thousand layers of tumultuous emotions. {Based on the story of Fyodor Dostoevsky’s ‘White Nights’
