I want to go down in posterity for the right reasons,” says Sonam Kapoor Ahuja. “When people think of me, they shouldn’t only think that I changed the way people look at fashion in India.” Reclining on a rust-red velvet sofa at her sumptuous home in London’s Notting Hill, the style icon and actor is in a philosophical mood on the day I meet her—and with good reason.
When I arrived over an hour ago, through the drizzle of an early summer’s day, she answered the door with a smile, fresh-faced and refreshingly low-key in leggings and a VegNonVeg T-shirt (from the sneaker store co-founded by her husband Anand Ahuja, along with the clothing label Bhaane). She apologised for the heart-shaped balloons that crowded her living room—a surprise from her parents on the eve of her 36th birthday—and proved to be the perfect host, fixing me a coffee and bowl of namak para as she told me about the year that was.
