Janhvi Kapoor recently opened up about the impact of her mother's sudden passing and how it prompted her to adopt religious practices. In an interview with The Lallantop, she said, "She believed in things like, ‘certain activities should be done on specific dates,’ ‘don’t cut hair on Fridays as it will prevent Goddess Lakshmi from entering the house,’ and ‘avoid wearing black on Fridays.’ I never believed in such superstitions. However, after she passed away, I started believing in them, maybe even too much."

For the unversed, Janhvi is the eldest daughter of filmmaker Boney Kapoor and the late actress Sridevi. She has a younger sister named Khushi Kapoor. Sridevi tragically passed away in 2018 due to an accidental drowning in a Dubai hotel. 

Meanwhile, on the work front, Janhvi made her debut in the film industry with the release of Dhadak in theaters in July 2019. In her upcoming film, Mr and Mrs Mahi, she will portray the role of a cricketer. The film is set to hit theaters on May 31st.
