We
told
you
this
will
happen
and
look...this
is
all
happening,
right
here,
right
now!
We
are
indeed
talking
about
the
rise,
rise
and
super-rise
of
the
'Surp-rise'
discovery
of
2007,
Sonam
Kapoor,
who
is
having
the
whole
of
2009
going
in
her
favour!
On
the
professional
front,
on
one
hand,
while
she
has
been
chosen
as
the
Brand
Ambassador
of
the
cosmetic
giant
L'Oreal
and
a
big
film
(Delhi
6)
lined
up
for
release,
on
the
other;
she
is
all
over
the
place
as
being
the
cover-girl
of
a
trillion
mags.
This
chic's
latest
conquest
is
the
latest
issue
of
the
uber-cool
magazine
Verve,
for
which
she
has
done
an
exclusive
photo-shoot
which
was
shot
on
the
sunny
beaches
of
the
Maldives.
One
look
at
those
'holiest-than-thou'
snaps
and
you
are
bound
to
get
impressed
with
her
zest
for
life,
the
love
and
cheer
she
spreads
liberally
and
a
sharply
discerning
mind
that
doesn't
allow
for
compromise.
Full
marks
to
Verve
for
discovering
the
undiscovered
aspects
of
the
petite
Sonam
Kapoor.
Lastly,
what
one
observes
is
that,
those
(read
'critics')
who
had
panned
and
pulled
Sonam
Kapoor
down
immediately
after
her
Bollywood
debut
vehicle
Saawariya
will
now
have
to
eat
their
own
words
now.
Welcome
aboard...
Sonam
Kapoor!
