Janhvi Kapoor hyping dad Boney Kapoor as he reminisces Sridevi, Anil Kapoor’s Mr India‘s success is too precious: ‘You have always done it…’

Born to the late actress Sridevi and producer Boney Kapoor, Janhvi Kapoor has carved a niche for herself in the Hindi film industry. While Janhvi continues to sign meaty roles for herself, the actress leaves no stone unturned to shower her love on her dad, Boney. Recently, Boney Kapoor reminisced about the success of his 1987 production, Mr. India, on social media and Janhvi hyping her dad over Anil Kapoor and Sridevi-starrer is too precious to be missed. The Ulajh actress’ reaction is all about motivating him that he can “still do it again”.

On August 31, Boney Kapoor shared a success poster of Mr. India on his Instagram handle. The poster which features the lead stars Anil Kapoor and Sridevi, read, “Creating new waves in the entertainment world.” 

In his caption, the producer wrote, “Can still do it again,” followed by an emotional emoji.

Take a look at his post here:

Janhvi Kapoor, being the sweetest daughter that she is, dropped a heartwarming reaction to Boney’s post. “You have always done it, you still do it and you will continue to,” she commented.

Meanwhile, in the comment section, a fan asked the filmmaker to remake Mr. India with Janhvi. Another Instagram user had a similar feeling about their collaboration. “Janhvi Kapoor ko lekar banaye part 2 Mr India.”

“Trend setter one n only Mr. KAPOOR,” read a comment. An Instagram user wrote, “Not possible without Sri(devi).”

“Its only Boney ji, who can repeat history and make history,” read a comment.

Directed by Shekhar Kapur, Mr India is touted as a superhero film jointly produced by Boney and Surinder Kapoor. Screenwriter duo Salim Khan and Javed Akhtar co-wrote its story and screenplay.

The 1987 movie featured Anil Kapoor and Sridevi in the leading roles. Late actor Amrish Puri was cast as the iconic Mogambo, the antagonist in the film. Late actor Satish Kaushik played a crucial role in it. Aftab Shivadasani and Ahmed Khan appeared as child artists in Shekhar’s directorial.

Coming back to Janhvi Kapoor, the actress has Devara: Part 1 and Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari in the pipeline.

Ananya Panday reacts to viral ‘struggle’ comment that made it to Call Me Bae; reveals best way to deal with things that affect her

Ananya Panday made her Bollywood debut with Student Of The Year 2. Since then, she has worked in several movies with many big stars. While the audience remembers all her commendable performances, they can’t forget the time when she opened up about struggling in the industry. A reference to her viral comment also made it to the trailer of her upcoming comedy-drama TV series, Call Me Bae which will premiere on Amazon Prime on September 6, 2024. In an interview, she reacted to it and said she uses humor to deal with it, just like her dad Chunky Panday.

During a chat, Ananya Panday was lauded for not brushing her past comment under the rug but actually using it in her content to make the audience laugh. Sharing her two cents about it, the actress told Zoom that every person has a different way of dealing with it and this is how she deals with something. She further stated that there are days when she feels bad about things, but over the years, she has realized that the best way to deal with something is humor.

Crediting her father, actor Chunky Panday, she mentioned that his art she has learned from him. “He’s been like that. He always takes the joke on himself,” she exclaimed. However, she also highlighted that she can’t force anyone else to go by her notions. This is what works for her and people should do what works best for them, she concluded.

For context, she is talking about the time when she spoke about nepotism and her ‘struggling days’ at a roundtable interview with Rajeev Masand. When she equated her struggle to not being part of Koffee With Karan, her Gehraiyaan co-star Siddhant Chaturvedi stated that the struggle of star kids begin where their dreams are fulfilled.

This interaction spread like wildfire, leaving Ananya at the end of trolls and hate. During an exclusive chat with Pinkvilla, the Dream Girl 2 actress opened up about dealing with social media bullying and how she decided not to get affected by it. “I was exposed to social media very early on and I saw a lot of hate being directed at such a young age, not just at me but also other people around me. So I think, there wasn’t any definite moment but over time seeing people deal with hate and toxicity made me kind of realize,” she stated.

In the old chat, she expressed that her mother Bhavna Pandey has been the most affected by seeing the social media trolls against her. The youngster told us, “I think the problem with cyberbullying and people being mean is that you are not the only one who is getting affected, it is not just between you and the bully, it is on a public platform where everyone is seeing it, be it your parents, your friends, and random strangers. Even with me, whenever I used to get hate or got trolled, my parents would get more affected than me, especially my mom.”

“So, she is very happy that I have taken this cause because when you become an actor, I think people start taking you seriously. I think I get very sad when someone comments on my family, my dad or my mother or my sister. That really infuriates me,” she concluded.

Meanwhile, on the work front, Ananya Panday will be next seen in CTRL followed by Shankara.
