"The kind of hard work Harsh puts in is incredible. We all work hard, but he is very idealistic about his work. He is very intelligent and sharp. He will go a very long way," Sonam told PTI in an interview.

The "Neerja" actress, who is known for speaking her mind, said in her family they all have been given freedom to evolve and have their own opinion.
"He (Harsh) will do different things (in films). We all have been brought up with a strong sense of individuality. We have been given space and freedom to evolve," she said.
