Sonam to do Hollywood film after 'Mausam': Anil Kapoor

New Delhi, Aug 10, (PTI):

Sonam Kapoor, who has topped Maxim India's 100 hottest list, is planning to take up a Hollywood project after wrapping up her next project 'Mausam', says father Anil Kapoor.

Her latest film 'Aisha', an Indian adaptation of Jane Austen's 'Emma', made a theatrical gross of Rs 26 crore in the first weekend but the actress has already left for Toronto to shoot Anees Bazmee's 'Thank You', says her father.

However, the 50-year-old actor, who starred in Danny Boyle's multiple-Oscar-winning film 'Slumdog Millionaire' feels it is right time for Sonam to make a headstart in Hollywood.

"Sonam is only four films old but she is not only getting Indian offers but lots of Hollywood offers too and I think it is great going for her," Kapoor told PTI.

When asked whether Sonam, 25, had decided upon anything concrete, the actor-producer said they were currently reading scripts.

"It all depends on the script, role and availability of dates but I am sure that after she finishes 'Mausam', she will look into it. She read one more script before she left for Toronto.

If things go right and everything works out there is one international film she might do," said the actor without giving details.

Sonam has been reportedly offered a film by Ben Stiller titled '30 Minutes Or Less' but it is not clear whether she is onboard.

Kapoor initially wanted Sonam to concentrate on her Bollywood career but things seems to have changed post 'Aisha'. The actress is currently working on Akshay Kumar starrer 'Thank You' and 'Mausam' with Shahid Kapoor.
