Janhvi Kapoor, the daughter of Boney and Sridevi is making it big in the b-town by each passing day with her films. The actor, though, has faced her share of difficulties. She revealed in a recent interview that, simply because she is a star child, people frequently doubt her acting abilities online.

According to Janhvi, she has always been extremely clear about her life goals and is giving hard work top priority. She says she wants to carry on the legacy of her late mother. The actress added that her desire to give back to her parents and the public, rather than acting with arrogance, is what drives her. Janhvi continued by saying that even if she might have had an easier time getting some opportunities, she still feels like she is at a disadvantage. 

People won't see her films from a purely unbiased standpoint, in that sense. She must therefore persuade them that she can offer them anything. She continued by saying that she enjoys watching movies and that she is no longer embarrassed by her talent. Harper's Bazaar was told by Janhvi that she was only warming up.

The "Mili" actress also discussed how audiences reacted to her work and movies in the same interview. When Janhvi is working so hard, losing blood, sweat, and tears, or going through emotional upheaval, she said it hurts when some random, nameless person on the internet refers to her as a "nepo baby" online. 

She continued by saying that she would respect constructive criticism if it was directed at her. The Goodluck Jerry actress  claimed that there comes a time when you simply have to accept the fact that certain individuals are, for lack of a better phrase, plain depressed and are out to steal your happiness.

Talking about her workfront Janhvi will next be seen in Nitesh Tiwari's "Bawaal," which also stars Varun Dhawan, for professional purposes. She will also be seen with Rajkummar Rao in "Mr And Mrs Mahi" .
