Bollywood actress, Janhvi Kapoor is the daughter of filmmaker-producer, Boney Kapoor and his veteran actress wife, Sridevi. Following in her family's footsteps, Janhvi has already made a name for herself within a few years into the industry. She made her acting debut in Bollywood with the film, Dhadak, co-starring her alleged ex-boyfriend, Ishaan Khatter. Since then, she has never looked back and has been part of several hit projects. Apart from that, the actress is also one of the most talked-about actresses in the industry, courtesy of her outstanding fashion sense.
In her personal life, Janhvi Kapoor was very close to her late mother, Sridevi, and since the latter's demise, there hasn't been a single day when she didn't miss her mom. On August 13, 2022, Janhvi Kapoor had taken to her IG handle and shared a throwback picture with her mother on the late actress' birth anniversary. The photo was from Janhvi's childhood, wherein her loving mother was seen hugging her as they posed for the lens. In the picture, Sridevi looked flawless in a red silk saree, and Janhvi looked cute as a cotton ball in a sky-blue-coloured frock. Sharing the picture, the doting daughter had written:
"Happy birthday Mumma. I miss you more and more everyday. I love u forever (infinity symbol)."

On September 7, 2022, Janhvi Kapoor took to her IG handle and dumped a series of pictures and videos from her gallery. In one of the glimpses, Janhvi was seen posing with her boxing gloves. In another one, she shared a picture of her younger sibling, Khushi Kapoor and many others. However, what caught our attention was Janhvi's video, wherein the actress was seen dancing to Rekha's hit song, Dil Cheez Kya Hai. The song was from the film, Umrao Jaan, which had released in 1981. In the video, Janhvi was seen grooving on the same iconic steps as the veteran actress, Rekha and looked simply stunning in a white anarkali. Sharing them, Janhvi wrote:
"Trying to keep it together #literally."
Earlier, in an interview with Bollywood Bubble, Janhvi Kapoor had opened up about how being a part of a star family gave her an inferiority complex. Even after doing good work, she used to think that she didn't deserve them. She also talked about those people who judge others for both coming from a privileged family and also those who don't, and called them 'hypocritical'. In her words:
“You know it’s kind of ironic because what they are asking for is to not be judged for not coming from a place of privilege. But many of them judge you for coming from a place of privilege so it’s slightly hypocritical. But I’ll take it all with a smile because I’m getting to do what I love to do. So if like three out of the ten people have a problem with where I come from then I’ll keep walking till I win them over."

In the same conversation, Janhvi had said that she used to face huge trolling from her childhood days because of her parents. She mentioned that whatever she used to do or wherever she used to go, some people used to give the whole credit to her parents. Talking about the same, she had added:
"Right from school, they’ve always been people who’ve said that anything and everything you get in life is not because of yours but because of your parents so somewhere that’s I think had created a complex in my brain that I’m not deserving of anything even if I do well. It’s a thing that you always live with a little bit subconsciously and it’s not that tragic but it does make you look at things a certain way so for a long time I did and I think that I am still dealing with it. Sometimes when people ask me for a picture I still think in my head that it is because I am Sridevi’s daughter or like dad's (Boney Kapoor) daughter.”
