Sonam Kapoor has reacted strongly against MLA Sudhir Mungantiwar’s recent comments about the LGBTQ community. The politician was reportedly speaking about the Maharashtra Public University Act, 2016 Bill, which aims to include LGBTQIA community members on University Boards. Questioning the bill he stated, “Are you going to include lesbians and gays as members? Have some seriousness.” Reacting to the same Sonam Kapoor shared on Instagram, “Ignorant, illiterate and hurtful.”
Sonam is one of actresses who supports the LGBTQIA community. She had essayed a lesbian role in ‘Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga’, wherein her character falls in love with a girl, played by Regina Cassandra.
On the work front, Sonam will soon be seen in an entertaining thriller titled ‘Blind’. She wrapped the film’s shoot in Scotland, earlier this year. Directed by Shome Makhija, the film also features Vinay Pathak, Purab Kohli and Lilette Dubey in pivotal roles. Sonam Kapoor essays the role of a visually impaired girl in ‘Blind’ and was trained by a blind coach for her character.
