Janhvi Kapoor: Nothing is too much

Bollywood actress opens up about giving her all to films and why nothing is too much for meaningful cinema

Since making her debut with Dhadak in 2018, Janhvi Kapoor has been putting her soul into every project. Be it Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl or Mili, Bawaal to her latest Peddi, the actress believes strong stories deserve complete dedication.

Asked Janhvi Kapoor, who will be seen starring alongside Ram Charan in Peddi, how much is too much for an actor to invest in a role. 

Pat came the reply from the doe-eyed beauty, who made her Telugu debut in Jr. NTR’s 2024’s action drama Devara: Part 1, to IANS: “Oh, I think nothing is too much.” 

The 29-year-old actress, who has worked on stunt-heavy sequences head-on in some of her films, added: “I think for your art, if you feel convinced and if you feel strongly about the story and your role and the message, then give your life for it.” 

Her next is Peddi, a sports action drama film by Buchi Babu Sana. The film features Ram as a “crossover athlete” who transitions between the three difficult sports including cricket, wrestling and sprinting. 

Asked if she is a sports enthusiast, Janhvi, who is the daughter of the late superstar Sridevi and producer Boney Kapoor, said: “I actually, I 

wasn’t very athletically inclined. I used to enjoy dancing though, always.”
