When little Janhvi Kapoor stole the show while handing an award to Shah Rukh Khan; got a peck on the cheek from the actor. Watch
An old video from an award show is going viral on X (formerly Twitter), which shows a young Janhvi accompanying her father Boney Kapoor on stage, along with Preity Zinta. Boney and Preity were on stage to hand over an award, and Shah Rukh won it for Devdas. Despite the presence of the industry's two biggest names, all eyes were on little Janhvi, who looked adorable in a black dress. She had her hair tied in a braid and kept holding her father Boney Kapoor's hand. After reaching the stage, Boney asked her to say 'good evening.' He then picked Janhvi up in his arms so that she could also announce the winner's name with them, and together they shouted, 'Shah Rukh Khan.'
'I feel a great sense of achievement in having played a role that Dilip Saab did. I'm nowhere in the same league. My #Devdas is just a tribute to his performance' #ShahRukhKhan👏🏻 #DilipKumar
Is that lil Jahnvi? She's adorable. And so is Gauri, beaming with pride for Shah Rukh😊 pic.twitter.com/p7NnATlX8T

After coming on stage, Shah Rukh first planted a peck on Janhvi's cheek and then went on to receive the award. Janhvi remained unaffected by the cameras and kept looking here and there. After Boney handed the award to Shah Rukh, they all posed for a picture. The actor gave a speech about filling Dilip Kumar's shoes in Devdas. Dilip Kumar had originally played the iconic character of Devdas in the 1955 film. Shah Rukh later starred in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Devdas, which released in 2002.
In an earlier interaction with NDTV, Janhvi was asked if she would like to star opposite Shah Rukh, Aamir, or Salman. Though she expressed excitement at the thought, she also expressed some reservation. She said, 'They are the biggest stars and everybody wants to work with them but thoda odd hoga agar main unke opposite kaam karungi toh (it would be a little odd if I star opposite them) but I will love to work with them.'
On the work front, Janhvi will next be seen in Karan Johar's Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari and Dinesh Vijan's Param Sundari. Shah Rukh, on the other hand, is gearing up for The King, which is helmed by Pathaan director Siddharth Anand.
