“Why Should I Want The Comparisons With My Mother To Stop?”- Janhvi Kapoor

Subhash K Jha Speaks to Janhvi Kapoor

For those who think being compared with her legendary mom Sridevi is a problem for Janhvi Kapoor,here is her rather confident verdict on the topic.

Says Janhvi, “Why would I want the comparisons to stop?Why would I be offended by being compared with my mom? I am being compared with the best. So they are holding me to the best possible standards. It’s like reaching to the stars. At least I can aim for the sky. I think I am flattered.”
Janhvi doesn’t think the comparisons are uncalled-for. “ I can’t blame them for their expectations. I am trying hard to live up to the expectations. I may not have the talent or beauty of my mother. But it’s the hard work that is my USP. I know I will get there.”

Janhvi confesses she is completely engrossed in her career. “Cinema is my life. Acting is the only thing that keeps me going. I will keep on reaching for the stars. I am not apologetic anymore for where I come from.”
