Bollywood actress and singer Sophie Choudry has carved a niche for herself as a host for events, corporate shows and high-profile weddings. The Once Upon a Time in Mumabi Dobaara actress recently grabbed attention for her appearance at billionaire NRI businessman Rama Raju Mantena's daughter Netra Mantena's royal grand wedding with Vamsi Gadiraju in Udaipur. Sophie was hosting at the event where pop icon Jennifer Lopez also performed. Jennifer Lopez Serves Desi Glam in Custom Manish Malhotra Saree at Netra Mantena and Vamsi Gadiraju’s High-Profile Wedding in Udaipur (See Pic).

Sophie took to social media to share a picture with JLo from the event, expressing her appreciation and gratitude to her "idol". Soon after she shared the post, a netizen questioned how she was sustaining a career in the industry without doing any movies and web series or even songs. Sophie did not hold back and responded to this strongly.

Reacting under Sophie Choudry's X (previously Twitter) post, where Sophie Choudry could be seen posing for a picture with Jennifer Lopez, a netizen asked her, "Yaar Sophie mujhe aaj tak nahi samajh mein aata, how have you survived Bollywood bina kaam ke. No movies, n web shows, not even as songs. We have only seen you in bits & pieces, then how have you survived #bollywood?"

In response, Sophie responded sharply but with grace, saying, "Through the live show market. Been one of the busiest live singer performers for 17 years for corporate and wedding shows, am the number 1 female host for live events. Just because you don’t see me on screen doesn’t mean I haven’t made my place elsewhere."

Sophie also added that unless a female actor in India is under the Top 10, they don't make much money, a fact that she claimed to have realised long back and is thankful to God for being able to realise it.
