Young and outspoken actress Sonam Kapoor finds nothing wrong in signing a film contract with a no-pregnancy clause.

"It makes sense...it's professional," Sonam said here when asked of her views on a no-pregnancy clause for actresses in Hindi filmdom.

"I don't think there's anything wrong in that. It's professional. I think it's normal," she added.

Daughter of veteran actor Anil Kapoor, Sonam is 28 years old and an eligible bachelorette of the Hindi film industry.

The discussion on whether a no-pregnancy clause be included in an actress's contract started when rumours of Vidya Balan's pregnancy surfaced. Vidya had denied the reports about her pregnancy.
