Mumbai, Dec 7: Who would think that behind that tough personality that Sonam Kapoor portrays, there would be a blushing teenager? The actress now speaks about her meeting with her first crush ever – Tom Cruise.

The first crush was none other than Hollywood actor Tom Cruise. Sonam gushes about her meeting with Tom Cruise at the premiere of Mission Impossible 4.

Sonam openly admits that she had plastered a poster of Tom and the late Jude Phoenix on her bedroom wall.

Speaking to media persons, Sonam said, “Of course, after Titanic (1996) my heart belonged to Leo (Leonardo DiCaprio) but I remember Tom and Brad Pitt in Interview With The Vampire: The Vampire Chronicles (1994)”.

Sonam sizzled at the premiere of the movie last weekend in a slinky dress, Jimmy Choo shoes, emerald and ruby danglers and a python print clutch. To add to her glamour factor, Sonam was flanked by Tom and dad Anil Kapoor.

Further, speaking about him, she said, “He praised me a lot to dad. I blushed and giggled like a schoolgirl. I’ve never been good at handling compliments.”

Sonam, being an action-adventure freak, was addicted to the Mission Impossible series much before her dad was signed up for the movie. “Sure, Tom is playing the lead while dad only has a cameo but an important one like Judi Dench’s in Shakespeare In Love (1998) that won her the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor,” she points out.

Speaking about her dad, Sonam said, “With dad, nothing surprises me. He’s more energetic than me and has always been an over-achiever. After Slumdog Millionaire (2008), the west has taken to him in a big way and now he’s bought the remake rights to the TV series 24 to remake it in Hindi.”
