Anil Kapoor is to make a film for his daughter, Sonam Kapoor, loosely based on Jane Austen's novel, Emma.Anil was initially reluctant to fund Sonam's career as he wanted her to make it work herself.A source: "When Sonam made her acting debut with Sanjay Leela Bhansalis Saawariya, Anil Kapoor was often asked why he did not launch her instead. But he wanted her to learn things on her own. Earlier, when she assisted Bhansali during the making of the Amitabh-Rani starrer Black, it was her way of knowing the hows and whys of B-Town. She wanted to be familiar with the behind-the-camera scenario too. "After Saawariya, Sonam did not indulge in a movie-signing spree. She was in no hurry and only wanted to essay characters that suited her and excited her."As a newcomer it helps to have someone stake money on you, especially if that someone is your own father!
