Sonam Kapoor
As it was expected, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has not taken the remarks made regarding her by Sonam Kapoor too kindly. You may recall that few weeks back, Sonam has been signed by a cosmetic company L’Oreal to endorse their products, when Aishwarya was already the brand ambassador of the company. When Sonam was asked about this confusing move by the company to rope in two brand ambassadors at the same time, Sonam had replied that she was roped in to advertise for products used by younger generation as she represented them.
Aishwarya has now hit back at Sonam. Sources point out that while L’Oreal wanted their new brand ambassador Sonam to be present at the Cannes film festival and walk the red carpet, Aishwarya insisted that since she is the international brand ambassador of the company, it is only her right to represent the company at big events such as these.
Sources also suggest that though they agreed, this was highly embarrassing for the beauty products company, which had made elaborate plans to use the platform of Cannes film festival to introduced Sonam as their new model and brand ambassador. But, they had to change their plans when on coming to know about it, Aishwarya went mad over the issue.
But, Sonam most probably has already got her lesson. Just like Priyanka, she also knows that it is neither easy nor desirable to get into any kind of confrontation with the Bachchan Bahu. Therefore, acting like a good diplomat, Sonam has tried to downplay the issue and said that Mumbai office of the cosmetic company will issue a clarification as to why she was not present at the film festival.
Well, that’s the best Sonam could do. Isn’t it?
