Janhvi Kapoor was supposed make her debut in Student of The Year 2 but Karan Johar, later, decided to launch her in Dhadak instead.
Sridevi admitted that she did not want Janhvi Kapoor to be an actress, but her love towards the craft made Sridevi reconsider.
Janhvi Kapoor has undergone her training in the same acting institute The Lee Strasberg Theatre & Film Institute, California, as Ranbir Kapoor and Aaryan Khan.
Janhvi Kapoor's name is inspired by Urmila Matondkar's character Jhanvi in the film Judaai starring Sridevi, who was pregnant at the time and shared a great bond with the actress.
Janhvi Kapoor was allegedly offered a movie with Mahesh Babu by director A.R Murugadoss. However, she reportedly denied it as she was not ready.
Ishaan Khatter and Janhvi Kapoor, while shooting for the song 'Pheli Baar' from Dhadak, had to shoot around a pond, which apparently had snakes in it. The actors stayed oblivious to the fact until after the shoot.
Janhvi Kapoor could not speak Hindi until she made her debut in Dhadak (2018), in which she is seen speaking Rajasthani and Hindi fluently.
