Koffee With Karan 7: Janhvi Kapoor opens up about the loss of her mother Sridevi

After the smashing first episode of Koffee With Karan 7 featuring Alia Bhatt and Ranveer Singh, Sara Ali Khan and Janhvi Kapoor made an appearance on the show. Janhvi opened up about the loss of her mother Sridevi. Sridevi passed away in 2018. Janhvi got emotional as she revealed she is yet to come to terms with the loss of her mother. She also spoke about her family’s support, especially her half-siblings Arjun and Anshula Kapoor.

The actress said, “I think it would have been an impossibility to have to go through that without Anshula didi and Arjun bhaiya. Nothing can make up for the loss that I have endured I think. But it’s a new dynamic. I think I am a different person.”

Janhvi went on to add that the person that she was when her mother was around was a fantasy. She said, “It almost feels that the person I was when mom was around was a fantasy. And the life I had then was a fantasy. I mean, of course, there were issues like every family has, but was idyllic and it seems almost like a dream.”

When Karan Johar asked her if her dream shattered after her mother passed away, Janhvi said, “The reality that I am living now is so anchored. It feels secure only because of Arjun Bhaiya and Anshula didi. I’d like to think that I have retained and preserved whatever she has instilled in me but it almost hurts to remember the person that I was because it was different.”

Janhvi added that she is currently in a happy space but confessed that she is yet to deal with her mother’s loss.

On the work front, Janhvi has interesting projects in the pipeline. The actress is currently gearing up for the release of her film Good Luck Jerry. She also has Mr and Mrs Mahi, Milli and Bawaal.
