At the World Premiere Red Carpet for The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel in London, Sofia Hayat boldly spoke against homophobia and expressed her support for South Asian Lgbtq (Lesbian; Gay; Bisexual; Transgender; Queer) issues – a controversial topic for many.
The British actress, model and singer emphasised her opinion that “love is love”, something many fail to understand when it comes to same-sex human rights.
For instance, homosexuality is now a “criminal” offence in India with the 2013 re-introduction of Section 377, an archaic law from the days of the British Raj. Nonetheless, even if you are Lgbtq and not in India, the issue of family shaming and stigma haunts many.
Hayat also encouraged South Asians not to be afraid and come out, stating – “Come out and be brave. Because it just takes one and everyone else will follow. And you just explain to your parents- you know what God made me this way.

This Friday will see the release of Subhash Kapoor’s Saare Jahaan Se Mehnga … and Tigmanshu Dhulia’s Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster Returns. Given the topical theme of Saare Jahaan Se Mehnga … and the success of the first part of Dhulia’s Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster, it promises to be an interesting battle at the box-office, but the more saleable stars of Sbagr may just tip the balance in its favour.

Mumbai, Mar 1: Asian British actress-singer Sofia Hayat went de-glam for her film "Naachle London", which will release in India March 8, because she does not wish to get typecast in a glamourous avatar.
"Glamorous roles are very easy. I got many glamorous roles and I turned down many because I don't want to be typecast. After this film, you will say she is not Sofia. She is a very simple and desi girl," the 28-year-old said here Friday in an interview.
"I really enjoyed (myself) because it gives me the chance to do something that I have never done before," added Sofia, who plays a mother in the film.
Director by Neville.

On one of the filming days for Naachle London, director Neville Raschid was anticipating a glorious, sunny day at Kew Gardens in preparation of outdoor scenes, as well as inside the infamous Greenhouse. But once the crew began shooting the sequences inside the Greenhouse, the heavens opened up, inducing the wettest day of the year instead of the hottest!
As the crew were setting up between shots, British screen heartthrob Jake Canuso informed Neville that he was happy to dance in the rain and duly stepped outside. Neville then asked Fagun Thakrar, Jake’s co-star, and she was equally willing to take up the challenge, after looking outside to see Jake already getting his hair wet and practicing his moves in the downpour. And by pure serendipity, some of the most stunning shots of the film were created… with entirely natural rain and no need for rain machines!

The writers at Bollyspice were invited to an exclusive press conference for the first ever Bollywood/British film Naachle London – effectively a British production, but heavily inspired from old school Bollywood with relevant doses of melodrama, music, dance and family values. The film is directed by Neville Raschid (Ealing Comedy, Lost Dogs) and stars Raj Ghatak, Jake Canuso, Fagun Thakrar, Alyssa Sharma and Sofia Hayat.
The film tells the clichéd yet ever appealing tale of a rich girl and a not so well-to-do boy falling in love against parental opposition. At the same time, it cleverly weaves current issues like the recession, interracial relationships, and the complexities behind broken homes in Asian communities with the obligatory stylised, catchy musical numbers which are a pre-requisite for any mainstream Bollywood film today.

British Indian Actress Sofia Hayat feels she is as good as, if not better than Bollywood actress Katrina Kaif. She told a leading tabloid ?If Katrina Kaif, who has no talent, can make it big, then watch out India, here comes Sofia. I’ve watched her (Katrina) perform live to ‘Sheila Ki Jawani’ and she was expressionless. She was like, ‘How much am I getting paid to do this show?’.”
However, Katrina Kaif seems less amused by this comment. A close friend of the actress told a source “She never spoke a word during the Sonakshi episode, and she’ll not talk about Sofia Hayat. She doesn’t want to degrade her dignity like that.”

Chitrangda Singh was the original choice of director Arsala Qureishi and Sabrina Louis, of The Unforgettable. The directors did try to reach out to her, but Chitrangda who had withdrawn into matrimony and parenthood wasn't keen on cinema at that point in time. Say debutant directors Arsala and Sabrina, "Chitrangda Singh was our original choice. But she was not keen on doing movies at that point of time. Dejected by this, we moved to foreign shores and opted for the stunning Sofia Hayat. Sofia, who just had her autobiography released by Amazon, was more than happy to slide into the role." As things turned out, Arsala had to make some changes to suit Sofia's persona and also make the script sexually explicit to lend strength to the character. It was but obvious that, had she cast Chitrangda, Arsala's script would have had to do without the hot scenes, which are...
