No, Sonam Kapoor is not replacing Sonali Bendre in the India’s Got Talent 2. There was speculation about Bendre not making it and that the channel was keen on having Sonam on board. However things did not work out. A source from the show says, “Sonali and Kirron Kher stay in the show with Sajid Khan joining them. There was uncertainty about Sonali as she had some other commitments. But now things have sorted and she has given her nod. She has also signed the papers. We are about to finish the auditions and will begin shooting the studio episodes next month.” There was also buzz that Kher might opt out of the show as well, however our source denies this saying, “Kirron was very much part of our show from day one, we never thought about replacing her and she has never told us about not doing it.” The second season will follow the same format as season one and the show is expected to be on air by next month.
