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.
