Sonam Kapoor talks about the growing recognition of India in the West

Sonam Kapoor was recently seen in the film ‘Blind’ directed by Shome Makhija, which also starred Purab Kohli, Vinay Pathak, and Lillete Dubey in prominent roles. The film marked Sonam’s return to acting after a maternity break.

Beyond her acting career, Sonam Kapoor is known for her influential role in representing India globally in the fashion industry. She has now received invitations from leading luxury fashion houses to witness their collections. Sonam Kapoor made a few statements regarding India’s growing international recognition on that occasion.

Sonam says, “I think the West didn’t understand the power of our impact in this part of the world. We are developing nations, but that is slowly changing, and we, as people here, have our growing voices as individuals and spending power as clients, making it difficult to be ignored anymore. Whenever I am at an international event, I make sure to wear something from an Indian or South Asian designer.”

Taking pride in representing India. She adds, “Whenever I represent India, I represent the diversity, resilience, and coexistence that the country enjoys. The fact that we have such a strong cultural heritage and ancient civilization means that whatever is made in India has great value. It’s a multicultural place where people from many faiths live together in harmony, and representing that is of utmost importance.”

She further says, “Besides being the land of yoga and spiritualism, for which India is renowned in other parts of the world, it is also celebrated for its music and artisanal craftsmanship. It’s the realm of jewellery and embroidery. Most notably, numerous haute couture and luxury houses have their clothing intricately embroidered in India.”
