Recently, Sonam Kapoor was in the news for her tweet on the meat ban. While most people tend to think of her as just a fashionista and actress, few know of her deep love for animals. A Bollywoodlife.com report states that now the actress has asked for a ban on the classroom dissection of animals for university life sciences and zoology students. She is taking the fight straight to the Minister of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, teaming up with PETA to urge him to retain the long-standing ban. In the letter to Minister, Javadekar, the actress writes, “Returning to the archaic system of animal dissection would prevent students from learning in contemporary ways. It would also no doubt turn some bright students away from pursuing science degrees altogether.”

Sonam Kapoor has said that she never judges a guy on his financial grounds. When asked about her real-life expectations, Sonam said, "I like potential in people. If I find someone, who has lot of potential and can do something with life then I don't see bank balance, which family he comes from or his religion. I am extremely idealistic and extremely impractical in life which is not the best thing on this planet but it has held me in good position till now. I have no baggage with my relationships and everything I have done is with all heart. Even if something doesn't work out, I am friends with all of them. There is nothing dirty about the break-up. Also, if it doesn't end on a negative it's easy to be friends with your exes. It's not tough but the closure is important."

She claims that it is not the right way to inspire the youth. On being asked about the changing situation of women in the industry, Sonam said, "I hope the condition of women changes in India. Bollywood is different. For me, films are the reflection of what society is. The society needs to change and then films will change. Films and art don't dictate society, they reflect society. I am trying very hard in terms of small things, the way I conduct myself and talk to people. There are lot of heroines, who are prim and proper and are diplomatic. They don't want to give opinions and don't want to speak about anyone. In many ways, we are setting a wrong example for the girls and that's not a cool thing to do. The society should change," added Sonam.

Sonam Kapoor, who is known for her honest opinions, claimed that men need to change their outlook towards women. She announced that banning item numbers was stupid. Sonam said, "I think it's so stupid to think about banning songs. So what if we wear certain type of clothes or do certain things? We are not doing anything wrong. Men have to look at us differently. If you see our Ajanta Ellora Caves, you will understand that we are the land of Kamasutra. We can't cover ourselves from head-to-toe. We can't run around in burqa; that's not our culture. It's unfortunate when people say you can't wear skirts or do item numbers or a girl can't dress in a certain way. Are we going back to dark ages?"
