Sonam Kapoor names the idols who have influenced her life and acting style apart from her papa, who’s her “mentor, philosopher and guide” and manages her contracts and deals:

Waheeda Rehman: Gorgeous dancer, stunning appearance and a whammy performer. Her snake dance in Guide is Sonam’s all-time favourite and she “envies” her for being Guru Dutt’s heroine.

Rekha: Her enduring “aura” and magnificent screen presence fascinates Sonam.

Sridevi: She’s impressed with Sri’s “sheer range” which is amply displayed in Sadma and Chaalbaaz.

Salman Khan: When her childhood star turned her hero, she knew that Lady Luck was beaming upon her. Sonam is awed by his “complete dedication” to cinema.

Shaan: Believe it or not, during her college days Sonam “simply worshipped” singer Shaan and doted on his Lovology album.
