Sonam Kapoor 'stops wearing Galliano'

Sonam Kapoor has announced that she will not wear clothes by controversial former Christian Dior designer John Galliano.

The actress, who played a fashionista in last year's Aisha, is upset by the designer's alleged anti-Semitic statements in Paris earlier this week.

A source told Mid Day: "She is extremely fashion conscious and loves wearing the brand's outfits, especially those designed by Galliano. For Aisha, a majority of Sonam's outfits and accessories came from the designer label.

"She even possesses a few outfits from the fashion house. But she could never condone anti-Semitic statements, no matter how much she loves the designer."

The Bollywood star joins figures such as Natalie Portman in condemning Galliano's widely-publicised comments.

Akshay works hard

Sonam Kapoor has said that her current co-star Akshay Kumar is the most hardworking actor she has met.

According to Mid Day, Kapoor and Kumar are presently shooting in Toronto on Anees Bazmi's Thank You.

Kapoor observed: "He's ready before everyone else and rehearses each scene 50 times. And his comic timing is so hard to match."

Commenting on the difference between her last release and Bazmi's film, she said: "My comedy in Aisha is very Lucille Ball, very Goldie Hawn. But in Thank You, I needed to drop all my inhibitions."

The actress also revealed that she forms good relationships with other industry figures, with the exception of Ranbir Kapoor who she claims to be no longer in touch with.

"I get along all with my co-stars because I don't get involved with them. Bobby Deol is so shy. His cousin Abhay is just the opposite. Abhay and Bobby are complete opposites. Me and Bobby love clothes and shopping," she said. (taheena)
