Janhvi Kapoor is making her Bollywood debut with Shashank Khaitan's film, Dhadak. She essays the role of Parthavi in the film that is based on caste discrimination and politics. The film is a remake of the Marathi super-hit film, Sairat.

In an interview with Times of India, Janhvi talked about her debut film and said, "I think people are quick to make judgments, maybe because Sairat has such a sentimental value attached to it. I hope people give us a chance.

She added, "I constantly feel judged and I won't lie that there have been days when I have been down and out about it. But I love acting and nothing means more to me than being in front of the camera. I know that many people feel that I have got this opportunity too easily and I feel a sense of responsibility towards them. I want to work hard and prove myself, when asked about the comparisons between Archie from Sairat and her character in Dhadak.

When asked about mom Sridevi's reaction, Janhvi said, "She had seen 20 minutes of footage. She was very happy, she said a lot which was very surprising. But even from her, even though she is my mom, I feel like I would have to earn the appreciation. I feel uncomfortable talking about what she said. I want people to form their own opinions.

You got everything served on a silver platter and did not even go through any struggle whatsoever...this is just bare minimum...even if you do not excel, there will be Karan or your father going to producers to ask for roles...

as much as everyone is appreciating her it's very much clear this personality of her is an act. and for people saying she is so down to earth it's cause she has to be, she choose everything from her production house to the movie she wanted and oh didn't have to audition for it either. if she had any bit of arrogance people would have hated her because she did absolutely nothing to get this role hence she has to put up this facade of being grateful !
also she better get used to the judgement - even though online she is gaining a lot of popularity people irl don't find her attractive as she is being made out to be. heck her straight profile is so plastic i wonder when is planning to stop with the fillers * even kylie stopped now

There is a difference between constructive criticism and trolling.I think she is talking about the latter!
