Coldplay's latest single "Hymn For The Weekend" may be under fire for cultural appropriation but Bollywood actor Sonam Kapoor is over the moon about being in the video and getting VIP access to all the band's concerts. In an interview with Gulf News Tabloid!, Sonam said that although her part in the music video was for a mere few seconds, she would not have given up the chance for anything. "First of all, I am in a Chris Martin video and I am a huge fan of Coldplay. When I was in high school, I grew up [listening to] Oasis, Coldplay and U2. And if somebody told me at 16 that I was going to be in a video, I would go: ‘shut up'," she said. "So when Chris Martin's agent told my agent that they really like [me] and they want [me] to do a cameo, my agent was like: ‘it's just three shots'." "But I was like it's [expletive] Coldplay, dude. I get VIP access to them forever," Sonam said. The actor is seen wearing a traditional lehenga choli and jewelry in the video. But what's more exciting for this budding actor is the fact that she gets VIP access to all of the British band's concerts, and she has already planned to take her friends to their concert on her birthday. "So on my birthday, I get to take all my friends for a concert. I get VIP access to their concerts forever and I am going to make them sing Yellow to me," gushed Sonam. — Agencies
