I have the choice to change my name to what I want to. Kapoor is also my father’s name So it is a man’s name anyway. I chose to keep both. Anand had also changed his name but nobody wrote about that. I just decided to do it on social media because that’s my platform to say that I have made a choice. It is my personal choice. Nobody put a gun to my head. You should ask him(Anand). He has also changed his name and decided to add something as well.”

Anand Ahuja changed his name to Anand S Ahuja on Instagram.

Sonam further said that she is a feminist and feminism is about having equal opportunities and the choice to do what one wants to do. “Somebody judging me for my choice is not what feminism stands for,” she added.
