Janhvi Kapoor on getting nose job
In an interview with Maheswari for Galatta Plus, Janhvi was asked about Sridevi's reaction when she told her that she wanted to become an actress. To this, the actress said, "She said, 'Okay, but then you have to give your life to it'." Maheswari later recalled what the late actress told her about Janhvi's acting plans.
"Jaanu wants to be in films, but I'm not very keen because it's a lot of hard work, a lot of dedication, and you have to be really strong to get in there," Maheswari shared what Sridevi mentioned. As the conversation continued, Janhvi made a surprising revelation. Her mother's perspective changed after she got nose job.
"I think maybe you should cut this out, but I think before I did my nose, she was unsure. She was like, 'I don't think it's...' After I did my nose, she's like, 'Yeah, there's potential'," she added. Janhvi also reflected on her mother Sridevi's experience with cosmetic surgery. "Even Mumma. That was the shift in all of our lives."
When Khushi Kapoor spoke about cosmetic surgery
Earlier, in an interview with ETimes, Janhvi's younger sister, Khushi Kapoor, also admitted undergoing cosmetic surgery. The actress, who made her debut with The Archies, said, "Yes, I have changed my looks. But everyone thinks I have done some 10-20 things on myself. It is obviously not the case. I don't think going under the knife for your looks is such a big deal." For Khushi, it's not okay to be dishonest around people about her looks.
Meanwhile, on the work front, Janhvi was last seen in Peddi with Ram Charan. As for Khushi, her last project was director Shauna Gautam's Nadaaniyan. She shared screen space with Ibrahim Ali Khan (son of Saif Ali Khan) in the romantic comedy. Talking about Sridevi, she passed away in 2018.
