Sonam Kapoor’s Performance

Sonam Kapoor will not only attend the event as a guest but also will be performing at the Coronation Concert. She will do an exclusive word piece as a prelude to the great virtual choir performance by the 56 Commonwealth countries that will include a combination of solo artists, duos and choirs.

Sonam Kapoor in a statement expressed her joy on receiving the invite. She is also very excited about her Word performance as a prelude to the virtual choir. Sonam Kapoor Ahuja in a statement said, “I am honoured to join the Commonwealth virtual choir for this ceremony, celebrating His Majesty’s love for music and art. It’s a momentous occasion that signifies a commitment to a positive, inclusive, and optimistic future for the United Kingdom, with the Choir’s music paying tribute to the royal legacy and promoting unity, peace, and joy.”

Sonam Kapoor Honouring India

Sonam’s Word Performance will be a thing of pride because this Royal Affair is a big platform which will be telecasted live on various internationally acclaimed channels and will be followed by thousands of people. The Coronation ceremony also has the honour of many other celebrities and dignitaries, when an Indian will speak amongst this crowd, it will bring attention to the whole of India as a country. 

The Netizens Displeasure

Soon after the news of Sonam Kapoor Ahuja attending the Coronation Concert of King Charles III was made public, the netizens have their opinions to raise. While many are very happy for Sonam as she represents India on one of the biggest platforms of 2023. There are many others who have brutally trolled Sonam for her chance. While many believe she has not achieved much to attend a celebration of this magnitude, there are others who have gone to the extreme length of saying that Sonam is not even invited to big events happening in India, so how did she bag this invite? 

Whatever the netizens have to say, this does not change the fact that Sonam Kapoor Ahuja will be representing India on a stage that will be closely watched by people across the globe. She will not be a mere spectator but also has the honour to do a Word Performance as a prelude to the Commonwealth Virtual Choir.
