Sonam Kapoor ready to bend rules for Shahrukh

Sonam Kapoor may be just two films old, but she is
choosy about her roles and has drafted strict guidelines for herself to sign
movies. The young actress is, however, willing to make exceptions if the man
opposite her happens to be Robert De Niro or Shah Rukh Khan.”Well, why would one
actually ask questions if paired opposite Robert De Niro?” asks Sonam with a
mischievous smile. “You should consider yourself plain fortunate to just share a
common frame with him. In fact, I will be happy to even walk past a frame
featuring him. No questions asked. Period.” Sonam teamed up with Ranbir Kapoor
in her debut vehicle Saawariya and she was seen with Abhishek Bachchan in her
second film Dilli 6. She is now looking forward to a movie with superstar Shah
Rukh.

“He is another man for whom I will be so very willing to ignore my rule book.
I would be more than happy to go ahead and sign a film if Shah Rukh happens to
be my hero,” says Sonam, a self-confessed Shah Rukh fan.”There are exceptions
that one makes about the size and content of the role when it comes to working
with legendary actors; De Niro and Shah Rukh just fit the bill,” she
said.However, when it comes to working on films with anyone lesser, Sonam
certainly has her do’s and don’ts in place.”I don’t intend to do films where all
I am required to do is to dance in four songs and enact a couple of emotional
scenes. By no means am I looking at that kind of cinema,” she said.

Though the formal announcement of her next film is yet to take place, reports
are that Sonam’s next will be for her dad’s production house. The film is called
Ayesha and is based on Jane Austen’s novel Emma.According to industry sources,
Sonam will be making a complete about turn from her Saawariya and Delhi 6 image
and take on a completely new ultra-chic avtar. The film will feature Abhay Deol
along with newcomer Arunodoy Singh, who will soon make his debut with Sikandar.

Sonam and Imran Khan are meanwhile reportedly being considered by Kunal Kohli
for his next film that would be directed by his assistant Danish Aslam. However,
confirmation is still awaited around this young love story.
