Janhvi Kapoor, the Bollywood sensation who’s not just a star kid but a force to be reckoned with in tinsel town. From intense roles to the girl-next-door charm, this actress has left her mark in Bollywood, proving she’s more than just famous parents. In a recent rendezvous at the Agenda Aaj Tak interview, Janhvi spilled some beans about her debut movies, Dhadak, which holds a special place in her career.
Janhvi Kapoor had an advantage being Sridevi’s daughter?
For the unversed, Janhvi Kapoor is the daughter of Sridevi and Boney Kapoor. She revealed on how she played it cool during the Dhadak shoot. The actress confessed to having an ‘unfair advantage’ as Sridevi’s daughter. She wasn’t about to take any advice from her iconic mom. She shared, “When I was doing my first film (Dhadak), I was so conscious that I wanted to stay aloof from my mother because people were saying that I got my first film because I am Sridevi’s daughter.”
She added, “I went on a different trip and thought I wouldn’t take any help from her. If she acted a certain way, I would do the complete opposite. I used to tell her to not come on the sets, to not help me.”
Adding that she felt it was an ‘unfair advantage’ to have access to the legendary Sridevi Kapoor, Janhvi confessed, “I used to feel as if I had an unfair advantage, a trump card thinking ‘How many people have access to Sridevi Kapoor, who is the best actor to come out of India?’ I used to feel that it’s already an unfair advantage, it will be more unfair if I take her advice.”
Janhvi’s biggest Regret
She revealed her mother’s earnest desire to be on set with her. With a hint of regret, she shared, “I feel that was very silly. I am her daughter and can’t run away from it. I took people very seriously, and I regret now knowing the fact that she was dying to be on the set with me, to help me as a mother. And I didn’t let her. So, I think it’s one of the biggest regrets because sometimes I feel like if I just said ‘Mumma, I have a shoot, please come quickly.’”
On the work front, Janhvi Kapoor will be next seen in Devara, where she’s sharing the screen with Saif Ali Khan and Jr. NTR. And that’s not all! Get ready for the sizzling chemistry in Mr and Mrs Mahi alongside RajKummar Rao, hitting cinemas on April 19, 2024.
