In an exclusive chat with Pinkvilla, Janhvi Kapoor expressed her desire to become a great actress. The Dhadak actress told us, “I think it just comes from I want to grow. I want to be a good actress. I want to reach the top of my field. I want to move audiences with my acting and movies, want them to laugh, cry.”
Further on, she recalled how her mom, Sridevi, inspired her to connect with the audience. “From a very early age, I saw the effect that mom's work had on people,” she continued, adding that she even once asked her mother why everyone was crazy about her even though she was not a doctor, soldier, politician, or doing any work that would make them emotionally connect with her.
To this, the later actress replied, “Yeah, I am making them feel like I understand them; maybe escape their life and show them what a larger-than-life emotion is. I am making them laugh, entertaining them, dancing.” This is when Janhvi realized that there is a connection that is irreplaceable, and hence, she would also want to connect with people the way her mom did. “That's the aspiration,” the Ulajh actress stated.
Meanwhile, on the work front, Janhvi is all set to make her Telugu debut with Devara: Part 1, alongside N. T. Rama Rao Jr. and Saif Ali Khan, followed by Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari. As for Khushi, she will be next seen in her upcoming movie, Naadaniyaan.
