Sonam plans to direct incredible stories about strong women

Darpan News Desk IANS, 10 Feb, 2016 11:10 AM
    Actress Sonam Kapoor, who aspires to be a director, says she will direct incredible stories about strong women.
     
    "I will certainly turn director as I think there are more women required in that field. I think in the next couple of years I will direct a film that will talk about incredible stories about strong women,” Sonam told IANS.
     
    Sonam is currently busy promoting her film “Neerja”. The Ram Madhvani directorial features the actress as Pan Am chief purser Neerja Bhanot, who was gunned down by terrorists on a hijacked flight in 1986. She saved over 300 lives on that flight but lost her own.
     
    The film is slated for February 19 release.
