An artiste needs to have a full life, says Sonam Kapoor

Sonam Kapoor, who began her acting career with Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Saawariya (2007), has come a long way in Bollywood. Though some of her last movies have not performed well at the box-office, she is still one of the most sought-after actresses in the tinsel town of Bollywood.

Recently, the actress was asked how an artiste working in showbiz should plan their time, to which she replied, "I think if you are an artiste, you need to have a full life. I feel people related with creative fields should travel more often, they should spend time with friends and family. It is also important to read books, watch films and visit museums," said the actress at the launch of the new Pilot watch collection by the international watch brand IWC Schaffhausen.


The actress went on to add, "I feel an artiste should not restrict themselves only to films and attending film parties because then your world gets smaller, and you can't be the best version of yourself. For that, you have to do proper time management. I think I am passing through a good phase. It's because I prioritise my time.”

Talking about how she manages time, Sonam Kapoor said, "Time is the only commodity that goes away. It's a most precious commodity because there is limited time. So, for me, keeping time, being on time, using time effectively and not wasting time is important."

Talking about Sonam Kapoor’s upcoming project, the actress has not announced any film after her last release The Zoya Factor (2019). But speculations are rife that she will soon start work on her home production Battle of Bittora, a film based on the novel of popular author Anuja Chauhan by the same name. An official announcement is awaited though.

TroyBoi returns to his Indian roots with Rootz EP using Lata Mangeshkar’s voice to redefine British diaspora music

Highlights:

  • TroyBoi’s five-track EP Rootz is a personal return to the sounds of his childhood, released via Ultra Records in September 2025.
  • The single Kabhi uses an officially cleared sample of Lata Mangeshkar’s vocal from Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham.
  • Collaborations with Amrit Maan, Jazzy B and BombayMami plug Punjabi, Bhangra and south-Asian textures directly into modern trap and bass production.
  • This EP is part of a wider wave: British artists born into diasporas are using heritage not as garnish but as foundation.

Some albums hit you in ways you don’t see coming. Rootz is one of them. Not just another trap EP. TroyBoi, the London-born producer known for global bass and trap, has made something that’s also deeply personal. He didn’t just want to make music that bangs in clubs; instead, he wanted to reach back to the India of his childhood. And he did it with Rootz.

The track everyone’s talking about is Kabhi. Because it’s not just sampling Bollywood. Lata Mangeshkar’s voice was officially cleared for use on a non-Bollywood release, a milestone reported by multiple outlets. It’s history. It’s memory. And it’s a bridge.
