Janhvi Kapoor enjoys a massive fan following and is one of the most loved celebs in tinsel town. As she arrived back in Bombay today, the actress received a warm welcome by the paps at the airport. While she was heading out, she also clicked selfies with her fans. Several photos and videos of the actress went viral on social media.
Janhvi Kapoor kept it comfy and casual in a white tee teamed with a pair of trousers. She wrapped a stole and donned one of her brightest smiles as the shutterbugs greeted and captured her. Have a look at the video:
In a heartfelt gesture before the release of her upcoming film, Mr & Mrs Mahi, Janhvi recently visited a temple in Chennai with the late Sridevi’s cousin, Maheshwari Ayyappan. The temple held special significance for Sridevi. Sharing a photo of her visit on Instagram, Janhvi revealed that this temple was her mother’s favourite spot in Chennai. Janhvi looked beautiful in a floral saree lehenga, sporting a big smile for the camera, keeping her mother’s cherished traditions alive in her own life. Captioning the photo, she wrote, “Visited Muppathanam temple for the first time ❤️ mummas most favourite place to visit in Chennai.”
Janhvi also recently talked about how her mother’s sudden passing affected her and led her to embrace religious practices. Reflecting on her film Mr & Mrs Mahi, she discussed her mother’s superstitions, like avoiding certain activities on specific dates and not wearing black on Fridays. Initially, Janhvi didn’t follow these beliefs, but after her mother’s death, she found herself adopting them more.
“She believed in things like, ‘certain activities should be done on specific dates,’ ‘don’t cut hair on Fridays as it will prevent Goddess Lakshmi from entering the house,’ and ‘avoid wearing black on Fridays.’ I never believed in such superstitions,” Janhvi admitted. “However, after she passed away, I started believing in them, maybe even too much. I don’t know if I was this religious and spiritually inclined when she was around. [When she was alive] we all followed these practices because Mamma did. But following her demise, the relationship our culture and history have with Hinduism… I think I started taking refuge in our religion a lot more.”
Janhvi Kapoor also shed light on her mother Sridevi’s devotion to Lord Balaji of Sri Venkateswara Swami Temple in Tirumala, Andhra Pradesh. She recalled, “She used to invoke his name all the time, ‘Narayan Narayan Narayan.’ She used to visit the temple every year on her birthday when she was working. After her marriage, she stopped going. Following her passing, I decided to visit the temple every year on her birthday. The first time I did, I became very emotional, but I also found great mental peace.”
