Sonam Kapoor will next be seen in Blind which features her in the role of a visually-impaired officer in search of a serial killer. In the teaser, Sonam is seen tracking a serial killer despite her visual impairment. While we fleetingly see glimpses of the serial killer, he looks ferocious in the teaser.
The thriller is an adaptation of the 2011 Korean film of the same name. It also stars Purab Kohli, Vinay Pathak and Lillete Dubey. The film has been extensively shot in Glasgow, Scotland. It will premiere on Jio Cinema on July 7.
Sonam Kapoor took a break from movies when she relocated to London in the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. After The Zoya Factor in 2019, she's only appeared for a cameo in Vikramaditya Motwane's thriller Ak vs Ak, also starring her father Anil Kapoor, brother Harshvardhan Kapoor, and filmmaker Anurag Kashyap. The film premiered on Netflix India in December 2020.
Sonam will be seen at the reception which will take place at UK Prime Minister Rishi Saunak's official residence and office on 10 Downing Street. The celebration is a part of India Global Forum's flagship event UK-India week, which is being held from 26th June to 30th June in London. Sonam will be attending the reception on Wednesday and will talk about India and its cultural influence across the globe.
