Sonam Kapoor would like to direct Deepika Padukone one day

Sonam Kapoor is currently busy,��extensively promoting her first Rajshri film, ‘Prem Ratan Dhan Payo’. While she is dabbling in different genres as an actor, with this Rajshri production, and then her next, ‘Neerja’, a biopic, she��also has directing on her mind. Kapoor reveals that she would like to direct the current generation of actors, including Deepika Padukone one day.

Kapoor spoke to DNA India about her next career leap. She��revealed,��” I will be directing one��very soon,��maybe in a��couple of years. I have written scripts, I have ideas/concepts…I��try to understand what it is about life that I want to showcase��and what it is that I��would like to explore within myself as a person and as an artiste, what I would like to see visually and I put that down. Lets see whatever comes of it. My training has been in direction.”

“I was Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s assistant��director for three years. I��find the genres of drama and romance very attractive. I love comedy as well. But I would love to direct women-centric subjects, too. I don’t think I’m talented enough to direct myself, but��maybe someday I would like to. Right now, several actresses inspire��me to direct- Swara Bhaskar, Alia Bhatt, Parineeti Chopra, Anushka Sharma and Deepika Padukone, too. They are all so good!” concluded Kapoor.

Kapoor��is seen romancing Salman Khan again in ‘Prem Ratan Dhan Payo’ after her 2007 debut with him in ‘Saawariya’.

‘Prem Ratan Dhan Payo’ releases on 12th November.
