Sonam once found herself at the center of a much publicized controversy Aishwarya Rai. The buzz started in 2009 when Sonam Aishwarya was announced as the brand ambassador for the global beauty brand. At the same time, reports suggested that Aishwarya had backed out of some beauty endorsements, making way for a younger face to represent the brand.What really fueled the headlines, however, was a comment Sonam made about her. Sonam referred to Aishwarya as an “aunt from another generation”. The remark quickly sparked controversy, with many critics accusing the actor of being insensitive and of an embarrassing age. At the time, Aishwarya was 36 and Sonam was 25, and the comment became a hotly debated topic in entertainment circles.Interestingly, Aishwarya never publicly reacted to the statement and maintained her dignified silence throughout the controversy. A few years later, Sonam addressed the issue in an interview with Hindustan Times.

One such instance came in 2016 when Aishwarya made headlines at the Cannes International Film Festival for wearing a bold lip line, a look that sparked widespread debate online.Sharing her thoughts with PTI, Sonam defended Aishwarya’s fashion choice and said, “The whole idea of fashion and makeup is for people to debate and I think she (Aishwarya) wanted to debate. She achieved what she wanted to achieve, which I think is great. I think (the purple lip color) looked great and she (Aishwarya) carried it off with aplomb. I think it’s great to do it in year 15, it’s cool. It was fashionable everywhere.“Rumors of tension between the two actors faded in 2018 during Sonam Kapoor’s wedding celebrations with Anand Ahuja. According to reports, Sonam’s mother Sunita Kapoor personally invited Aishwarya after meeting her at a family wedding reception hosted by the designer.
