Sonam breaks down at the ramp as she pays tribute to Rohit Bal

It was an emotional moment for Bollywood diva Sonam Kapoor as she paid tribute to the late fashion icon Rohit Bal during an event in Gurugram.
Several videos of the actress walking the ramp at the Blenders Pride X FDCI Fashion Tour 2025 emerged on social media platforms.
In the video, Sonam can be seen breaking down as she greeted the audience with folded hands.
For the event, Sonam wore a white outfit under a heavily embellished long ivory jacket. She tied her hair and added red flowers for a retro look.
The show paid tribute to Rohit with a special runway presentation that featured many prominent figures from various fields. Filmmaker Madhur Bhandarkar, fashion designer JJ Valaya, actor Eesha Gupta, actor Rahul Dev and Mughda Godse also walked the ramp at the event.
Rohit died in New Delhi on November 1, 2024, at the age of 63 from a cardiac-related issue.
The late fashion icon Rohit Bal started his career with his brother Rajiv Bal in New Delhi in 1986 at the Company Orchid Oversea Pvt. Ltd and started his own first independent collection in 1990.
After his demise, a huge controversy surrounding his Will ensued.
The Will became the bone of contention between his close friend and former model Lalit Tehlan and Rohit’s family.
Sunil Sethi, the Chairman of the Fashion Design Council of India (FDCI), who has been appointed as the executor, had said that he wants the process to be transparent and is sure that the will mentions all the beneficiaries. (IANS)
