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.
