After
playing
the
female
lead
in
Delhi-6
and
Raanjhanaa,
Sonam
Kapoor
teamed
up
with
Rakeysh
Omprakash
Mehra
again
for
a
special
appearance
in
Farhan
Akhtar-starrer
Bhaag
Milkha
Milkha.
The
actress
essayed
the
role
of
Biro.
In
his
memoir
Rakeysh
Omprakash
Mehra
had
opened
up
on
his
amazing
journey
with
Sonam
and
revealed
that
the
actress
had
accepted
only
a
token
amount
for
her
cameo.
He
said
that
Sonam
benevolently
accepted
a
sum
of
Rs
11
for
her
brief
role.
As
per
a
report
in
Pinkvilla,
the
filmmaker
mentioned
in
his
book,
"Sonam
Kapoor
benevolently
accepted
to
play
a
guest
appearance
for
a
princely
sum
of
Rs
11
only
for
her
brief
portrayal
of
Biro."
He
further
wrote,
"She
chose
to
accept
Rs
11.
She
had
a
special
appearance
in
the
film.
Both
of
us
shared
an
amazing
journey
with
Delhi-6
before
that.
She
told
me
that
she
is
needed
for
just
7
days
for
the
shoot
and
she
praised
us
for
trying
to
say
something
so
beautiful,
about
the
partition
of
this
country
and
the
spirit
of
Milkha
Singh.
So
she
wanted
to
contribute
to
the
film
as
well.
It
was
very
nice
of
her."
In
his
book,
Mehra
has
also
documented
how
he
was
affected
by
the
failure
of
Delhi-6.
He
has
written,
"I
was
going
deeper
and
deeper
into
a
dark
hole.
Unable
to
take
it
anymore,
I
drowned
myself
in
alcohol.
I
wanted
to
drink
myself
to
death
-
to
sleep
and
never
get
up.
I
could
see
how
much
pain
I
was
bringing
to
Bharathi
(his
wife)
and
our
daughter,
Bhairavi,
who
was
now
in
her
pre-teens.
My
son
Vedant
was
observing
and
things
were
eroding
between
us.
I
remained
careless
and
insensitive
to
the
people
I
loved
the
most."
