Sonam Bajwa Rejected A Bollywood Film

In an interview with Film Companion, Sonam Bajwa shared that she once rejected a Bollywood film because of a kissing scene. She shared, “In Bollywood, I said no to a couple of things because I said, ‘Is Punjab going to be okay with it?’ Because we have that mentality that family should be okay, families should be watching. I was very scared to do a kissing scene in a film back then, because I thought, ‘ How are people going to respond to it? How are these people who have made me who I am today, are they going to relate to it? Are they going to understand that this is for the script? Is my family going to understand that this is for a film? I had all these questions in my mind. And I let go of a couple of things.”

Sonam Bajwa Recalled An Incident

Sonam also reminisced about an incident of calling her parents and spoke about giving it more thought without rejecting the offers. Sonam said, “It was a couple of years ago; I spoke to my mom and dad about it. They were like, ‘Yes, if it’s for a film, it’s fine.’ And I was so shocked. Why did I not speak to them first? So many things we assume in our heads. I was so shy to discuss this with my parents, and they were like, ‘Koi nahi, je film liya, koi chakkar nahi.’”
