During an interview to an Indian media outlet, the “Mr. & Mrs. Mahi” actor, who is the daughter of film producer Boney Kapoor and the late actress Sridevi, revealed that she and her sister Khushi Kapoor often face negative comments regarding their filmy background.
However, Janhvi Kapoor asserted that she does not let such trolling affect her as it will happen no matter the actor’s background.
“Don’t take yourself seriously. Whether you are a public figure or not, in social media culture, these things will keep happening. You do not have to give yourself such importance,” she said.
