When Janhvi Kapoor revealed how she bagged her debut film Dhadak with Karan Johar: ‘Audition dena padha tha'
Bollywood beauty Janhvi Kapoor is currently busy gearing up for her next film Param Sundari. Also starring Sidharth Malhotra, the much-awaited rom com backed by Dinesh Vijan's Maddock Films, follows the love story of a Malayali girl from Kerala and a Punjabi munda from Delhi. When the first song Pardesiya released, Janhvi's look reminded many fans of her late superstar mother Sridevi. Well, ahead of the release of Janhvi's next film, the actor's old video talking about bagging her debut project Dhadak has now resurfaced on social media. Janhvi Kapoor and Ishaan Khatter in Dhadak Two years ago in a chat with Mashable India, Janhvi Kapoor revealed how she got her Bollywood dream debut with Dhadak (2018), co-starring Ishaan Khatter. The star kid shared, 'Audition dena padha tha. I went to meet Karan (Johar, filmmaker), and Karan knew of me through Manish (Malhotra, designer). Mujhe toh pehele laga hi nahi ki mujhe milne wala tha, toh I was like mazze kar rahi hun main, Karan Johar ke saath, audition kar rahi hun, acting tips mil rahe hain, mera kya jaata hai. And then he said I want you to meet Shashank and he wants you to read for him. So then I did a series of readings for Shashank and he'd give me scenes from Badri, Humpty. So I read and then he never actually told me I got the film.' When asked if things were up in the air for 1-1.5 months, Janhvi replied, 'Ek dedh nahi, Karan ke saath toh 3-4 mahina hawe mein tha. Then after this I kept reading, reading, reading and I was like 'achha chal raha hai yeh acting workshop, lekin life mein karungi kya samajh nahi aa raha hai'.' The young actor has come a long way. After Param Sundari, which is set to arrive in theatres on August 29, Janhvi will reunite with her Bawaal co-star Varun Dhawan in Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari.

Love Punjabi cinema, haven't gone out of my way to look for Hindi movies: Neeru Bajwa
New Delhi, Punjabi cinema star Neeru Bajwa says she is not averse to working in Bollywood, but she hasn't gone out of her way to seek Hindi movie roles. Love Punjabi cinema, haven't gone out of my way to look for Hindi movies: Neeru Bajwa Known for her standout performances in Punjabi blockbusters such as "Madhaniyan", "Waah Ni Punjabne", "Sardaar Ji 3", and "Jatt & Juliet 3", Bajwa recently featured in a cameo opposite John Abraham in "Tehran". She is currently promoting her new Punjabi film "Phaphey Kuttniyan", which revolves around two women who con their way through parties. Bajwa has paired up with actor Tania for the movie. "I've always loved Punjabi cinema, it's my first love. I'll keep doing Punjabi films as long as the audience wants to see me. I haven't gone out of my way to look for Hindi roles," Bajwa told PTI in an interview here. Talking about how "Tehran" came her way, Bajwa revealed it was through a casting director she had worked with earlier on her Punjabi film "Kali Jotta". 'She told me about the role, I loved it, and things just fell into place. I don't know many people in Bombay, so I believe that if a role is meant for me, it will find its way to me,' she recalled. She said the film's lead star John Abraham was down-to-earth and humble. "We had a lot of women on set, and he made sure everyone was comfortable. It was a great experience.' Written by Jagdeep Sidhu, "Phaphey Kuttniyan" is set for release on August 22 in theatres. Sidhu said the film blends comedy and suspense in a unique narrative that breaks away from conventional Punjabi storytelling. 'While we were working on the story, the characters started to form naturally... As they developed, we began imagining which actor would fit best. We were lucky to get our first choices—Neeru ma'am and Tania.' Sidhu, known for writing Punjabi romantic films like "Qismat", "Qismat 2", "Sufna", and "Lekh", admitted that writing comedy and suspense was far more challenging than romance. 'In romance, emotions flow more naturally. But with comedy or suspense, every scene and every punchline needs precise timing and often multiple rewrites,' he explained. Tania, who made her debut with Sidhu's directorial venture "Sufna", credited Sidhu for his versatility as a writer. 'He can dive into any genre and still bring depth to the story. Most writers stick to one style, but not him. Since his first directorial was my debut, we have a strong bond, we're honest with each other, and that helps build richer characters.' When asked about dream collaborations, Tania humorously added, 'We want to build our franchise. If this film does well, we hope it becomes a legacy and yes, maybe we'll earn some royalties too... But sure, if 'Game of Thrones' ever calls...' Bajwa said she is open to a good irrespective of the language or the industry. 'I don't have a specific wishlist. I'm open to French cinema, Hollywood, and Iranian cinema... I just love good stories,' she said. Tania, however, hopes to feature in a romantic film directed by Imtiaz Ali someday. "Phaphey Kuttniyan" is directed by Prem Singh Sidhu. The movie also stars Gurbaaz Singh, Nisha Bano, Amrit Amby, Prabh Bains and Ashok Tangri.
