Sonam said, "When I was growing up as a kid, I was bullied for my skin color because as a Punjabi, I was not (Gori Chitti) fair enough. A few of my relatives never even invited me to their house ever. I have never seen their houses while growing up. But when I did well in my career, they called me to their house all the time, but unfortunately, I lost connection and respect. So this is life everyone respects successful people be it in industry or society."


She further added, "The only thing we can do is we don't ever become like them. So yes, people have sidelined me, and that too at an age, where you don't understand why they were doing this."

The Honsla Rakh actress then commented on her professional experience. "So in the industry, when it was shunned and big and successful celebs were given importance, so to be honest, it did not affect me much as I had seen much worse than this. I have also experienced that the makers would remove me from a film and not even let me know, so I have been through such times, but it doesn't affect me much," said Bajwa.

On The Work Front

Sonam Bajwa will be seen next in a Punjabi movie titled Godday Godday Chaa. She was also seen touring the US along with Akshay Kumar, Disha Patani, Mouni Roy, and others.
