After playing the title role in Aisha (2010), Sonam Kapoor is once again headlining a book adaptation with The Zoya Factor. The actress confirmed her involvement in the project by stating on Twitter, “Super excited to work with amazing sister duo @aartims and @Pooja__Shetty with brilliant #abhisheksharma on @anujachauhan’s Zoya factor."
Sonam Kapoor told the newspaper Indian Express in an interview after the event, “I don’t know what I will play in it because of course, I can’t play Govinda even if I want. I have also bought the rights to the trilogy (Aryavarata Chronicles trilogy) and hopefully, one day I will make the film. There is so much potential in the stories of Indian mythology and that is where I invest my money, in content.”
