When asked if she is currently following Alif, Sonam surprised us with the list of Pakistani plays she is hooked on to.

We don’t have much to know or do there but I know all about what’s happening in Pakistan’s entertainment industry. I know all the names of the celebrities; I know everything. I have some really close Pakistani friends. I know Sajal and Rabia [Butt] personally as well. I religiously follow Pakistani dramas and I think they’re so amazing,” she added.
