Janhvi took the TOUGH decision on the 13th day of Sridevi's DEMISE

Janhvi Kapoor is awaiting the release of her debut film 'Dhadak' and currently the whole team is busy with the promotions of the film.

During a recent interview with the director of the film, Shashank Khaitan, he revealed that he is impressed by the professional commitment of the film's lead actress Janhvi Kapoor.

As we all know, Janhvi lost her mother and legendary actress Sridevi amidst the shooting of her film. But, despite the sudden demise of her mother, she fulfilled her professional commitments.

She completed the shooting of the film on time and she took this decision on the thirteenth day after her mom left for heavenly abode.

Recalling the time when Janhvi made up her mind, Shashank told IANS, "I think the whole credit goes to Janhvi and her family who supported me to finish the shoot of my film. I was ready to go back on set whenever Janhvi felt emotionally ready because at that time, for all of us, nothing was more important than her emotional security. But I am more than impressed to see her professionalism."

Sridevi had passed away on February 24 when the shooting of "Dhadak" was still going on.

"Even we were heartbroken. Imagine what she went through," recalled the director.

"So my immediate question was not when will we be able to finish the film, but how will she recover from her emotional loss. I think on the 13th day, she geared up to shoot and I was so impressed," he added.

Directed by Shashank Khaitan, 'Dhadak' marks the Bollywood debut of Sridevi's daughter Janhvi Kapoor and Shahid Kapoor's brother Ishaan Khattar.

The film is produced by Karan Johar under his banner Dharma Productions and is all set to hit the silver screens on July 20, 2018.
