Sonam Kapoor looked stunning in a white outfit at King Charles’ coronation ceremony, which was conducted over two days on May 6 and May 7. Certainly, the event was a star-studded affair with several big names marking their presence.
At the event, Sonam took the centre stage to introduce performances from the Commonwealth, and spoke about their rich heritage and shared culture. However, what caught everyone’s attention was when she greeted the audience with a namaste before beginning her speech.
In a one-minute clip that has now gone viral on social media, Sonam said, “Our Commonwealth is a union. Together we are one third of the world’s people, one third of the world’s ocean, one quarter of the world’s land. Each of our countries is unique. Each of our people is special. But we choose to stand this one. Learning from our history, blessed by our diversity, driven by our values and determined to build a more peaceful, sustainable and prosperous future for everyone, where every voice is heard. Without further ado, here’s welcoming the incredible voices from across the Commonwealth."

She even emphasised the diversity of the Commonwealth. Sonam then paid a tribute to the Commonwealth as she introduced the various choir performers. During the event, Sonam introduced Steve Winwood, who performed a modern version of his iconic song ‘Higher Love’.
