Janhvi Kapoor, daughter of the legendary actress Sridevi and producer Boney Kapoor, began her acting career in 2018 with Dhadak. Despite a promising start, Janhvi has faced several box office disappointments. Her films Ghost Stories, Mili, Good Luck Jerry, Mr and Mrs Mahi, and the recent Ulajh all struggled to recover their budgets and were deemed major flops.
In contrast, Sridevi had a highly successful career with hits like Chandni, Hawa Hawai, and English Vinglish, making her a celebrated figure in Indian cinema.
Janhvi is currently making her Tollywood debut with Devara, starring alongside Jr NTR. Scheduled for release on September 27, 2024, there is speculation about whether her Tollywood debut will be a success or if it will end up being another disappointment, similar to Ananya Panday’s debut in Liger. Only time will tell if Devara can turn Janhvi’s career around.
