Coldplay Knew Who Sonam Kapoor Was, ‘For Some Reason’

It’s common knowledge that Sonam Kapoor has done a blink and miss cameo in Coldplay’s latest music video A Hymn for the Weekend. And while many of her fans have been disappointed with her three shots in the video, Sonam said that she was aware that it was a very small appearance.
“For some reason, the band knew who I was. I was contacted and asked if I was okay with doing a small part in it. Now, I have been a huge, huge fan of the band and there was no way that I was going to say no,” said Sonam in an interview.
The actress’ fans weren’t the only ones, who objected to her cameo. Her father actor Anil Kapoor had no idea about Coldplay either.“He asked me who they were and why was I doing this really tiny part. All I told him was, what if the Beatles or Michael Jackson asked him to do a cameo, would he say no,” said Sonam.
Anil Kapoor clearly agreed with her decision but yours truly wasn’t spared either.
“I am a huge fan of Coldplay, Oasis and Green Day. But, you wouldn’t know who they are,” she said.
I tried to sing. But I couldn’t think of anything. And that was the hardest part.
