Actress Janhvi Kapoor embarked on the journey of acting back in 2018 with Dhadak. Following her debut, she proceeded to feature in several other movies, some of which include Mili and Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl. On the personal front, she had often been seen as the most doting daughter to her mother Sridevi.

An overwhelmed Janhvi Kapoor recalled the shoot days of her first acting project Dhadak, and recollected the way she abstained from taking her mother Sridevi’s help. The reason stemmed from the fact that she believed she had an ‘unfair advantage’ of having access to Sridevi Kapoor, who is one of the best actresses in India.

She went on to add that she stayed ‘aloof’ from her mother as people around her popped the debate of nepotism and said that she got her debut film as she was the daughter of the veteran actress.

“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. I used to feel as if I had an unfair advantage, a trump card about the fact that 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,” said Kapoor.
