When Yash Chopra's actress Sonam Khan got SLAPPED by her mother for doing a bold photoshoot

Yash Chopra launched several talented actors and among them, Sonam Khan stood out in the '90s for her bold and charming presence, making a lasting impact on the glamorous film industry.
Sonam debuted in Bollywood with Vijay in 1988, starring alongside icons like Rajesh Khanna, Rishi Kapoor, Hema Malini, and Anil Kapoor. She is remembered for her remarkable roles in films like Ajooba and Tridev, and her popular songs, including Tirchi Topiwale, remain fan favorites.
In November 2024, Sonam Khan shared some throwback pictures from a photoshoot that got her into trouble with her parents. Known for her rebellious nature, she did a bold shoot where she looked intense while posing in the bushes. When the photos were published, her mother was so angry that she slapped Sonam and even tore the magazine.
Check out her post here:

She captioned it, '"When I got a tight slap! I thought I was gonna look great and was wearing a skin colour short dress which was hidden by the tall grass around. So when the images came out, my mom came with the magazine, gave me a tight slap and tore the magazine up. I may have been bold at that time, but my parents were always very protective of me. Nonetheless, I was always a rebel with a cause. At least that’s what I thought!”

Sonam Khan, born as Bakhtavar Khan, took on the screen name "Sonam" at the suggestion of filmmaker Yash Chopra. She was the granddaughter of veteran actor Murad and the niece of Raza Murad. After her debut in Vijay, she starred in several successful films. Some of her notable roles include 'Renuka' in the 1989 action thriller Tridev, a double role as 'Anupama' and 'Neelima' in Mitti Aur Sona directed by Shiv Kumar, and as 'Sonu' in the 1990 film Kroadh, starring Sunny Deol and Sanjay Dutt.
