The Lost Heroine: Sonu Walia
Sonu real name Sonia Walia was born in Punjabi speaking family in Delhi. Her dad was an officer in the Indian Army. A student of Journalism, and a Psychology graduate, she decided to take up modeling and eventually entered the Miss India contest. She became a popular name after she was crowned Miss India in 1985, taking over from noted Bollywood actress, Juhi Chawla. She went on to compete in Miss World 1985. After completing her responsibilities, she relinquished her crown to Mehr Jesssia in 1986. Cusp-born (Aquarian/Pisces) Sonia, re-named herself Sonu and went on to try her luck in Bollywood. She was a part of many movies with the lead. However, it was her negative, role in 'Khoon Bhari Maang', which got her a lot of recognition. She won the Filmfare Best Supporting Actress Award for Khoon Bhari Maang with Rekha and Kabir Bedi in 1988. Unfortunately for this beautiful, shapely, and tall young woman, she was unable to shake off the 'glamor' tag. She couldn't get many meaty roles from her career which spanned from 1988 to the 2005 release 'Suryakant'. She was also seen in TV show Betaal Pachisi. Though her career didn't last for long but still she has managed to create a place for herself in people's heart. Her only link up was with Kabir Bedi in Khoon Bhari Maang. Subsequently she married U.S.-based hotelier, Pratap Singh, in a quiet ceremony in Pune during 1995 and re-located. Sonu is remembered as one of the most beautiful, under-rated, and intriguing actresses to ever hit the Bollywood tinsel world.
