“I had just started learning how to spell while I was in school. I honestly had no idea how to spell my own name. I called out to Mom (late actress Sridevi) while she was showering in her bathroom. ‘How do you spell my name, Mumma?' She spelt my name incorrectly. J-A-N-H-A-V-I, she said. I never questioned it for some reason. "It's been eight years," she stated.

“We were on our way someplace, I believe to London, and I finally opened my passport and realised that my entire existence had been a lie,” she says. My friends continue to make fun of me. ‘You need to shut up since you didn't know how to spell your name until you were 12 years old,' they remark every time I tell them something,” she said.

Well the Dhadak actor shared a throwback photo of herself with Sridevi and expressed her love for her. Janhvi wrote, "Happy birthday Mumma. I miss you. Everything is for you, always, every day. I love you (sic).”

Janhvi was most recently featured in Roohi, which was one of the first big-budget Bollywood films to hit theatres after the coronavirus situation appeared to improve early this year. However, with the second wave, the movie theatres were once again shut down.

Janvhi made her acting debut in Dhadak, starring with Ishaan Khatter, then went on to feature in Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl and Ghost Stories. Good Luck Jerry and Takht are two of her future projects. Karan Johar has placed Takht on hold for the time being as she wraps up filming for Good Luck Jerry.
