"I think our cinema has a lot of emotion. Even now when there is world cinema, we have our own identity. I love the fact that there is so much song and drama. I feel that we bring the emotional content to world cinema," Sonam said on Monday at a press conference to unveil six iconic Bollywood looks for the Cannes film festival here.
Coming from a family well-rooted in the film industry, Sonam added centenary celebration of Indian cinema is a special occasion for her.
"My family has been there in the film industry for years. My grandfather (Surinder Kapoor) was an assistant director in Mughal-E-Azam and then got into production. My dad (Anil Kapoor) has been there for so long. We are proud to be a part of the industry," said the 27-year-old whose uncle Boney Kapoor is a well-known filmmaker and he is married to actress Sridevi.
"My celebration was when I got a chance to interview Waheeda Rehman. She is my icon and I feel she represents Indian cinema," added the actress who worked with her in 2009 film Delhi-6.
