Cannes 2025: Janhvi Kapoor's savage response to haters calling her ‘plastic' is too good to skip
Janhvi Kapoor enjoys massive popularity online, yet a certain section of nasty users are seen passing judgment on her looks. The actress is currently making waves online with her attendance at the 78th Cannes Film Festival. On the other hand, a video showed an unfiltered side of the actress, where she is seen giving a savage response to the haters calling her 'plastic.'
In the video, Janhvi Kapoor was spotted getting ready for her appearance on Day 2. She was surrounded by her hair and make-up team while they worked on her look. The actress was sitting on a chair in a printed red and white robe while she grabbed a quick bite.
Addressing her fans in the video, she looked towards the camera and said, 'I look mesmerizing. I look breathtaking. I cannot wait to...eat'. She added, 'They are going to say it is plastic, but who cares?' leaving her entire team in stitches.
It is not the first time Janhvi has candidly admitted getting procedures done on her face. Back in 2022, she had posted a video on her Instagram stories. In the light-hearted video, while the video was being recorded, they were interrupted by somebody off-camera.
After being disturbed, someone from the actress's team asked her to 'reshoot' the bit. However, Janhvi quipped, 'No, I can't. I need to keep it natural.' And in another moment, she added, 'Like my face.' This left people around her laughing and adding to the banter, she also made a gesture with her hand, and said, 'Ghanta!'
Notably, Janhvi's sister and actress Khushi Kapoor also admitted to getting a nose job and lip fillers earlier this year. In an interview with Curly Tales, she had opined that it wasn't a 'big deal.' However, people use the term 'plastic' as the biggest insult they could give someone.
Janhvi Kapoor is accompanied by her father Boney Kapoor, sister Khushi Kapoor, and Shikhar Pahariya at the Cannes. She had the screening of her film, Homebound, co-starring Ishaan Khatter and Vishal Jethwa, on May 21. Directed by Neeraj Ghaywan, the film received a 9-minute standing ovation from the audience during its screening.

New Delhi: Karan Johar recently got candid about how the latest trend of "herd mentality" in Bollywood is plaguing the film industry more than ever. He elaborated by saying that with blockbusters like Chhaava and Stree, everyone wants to now make historicals and horror-comedies, as they seem to have cracked the code to keep the audience interested. He further shared how he wants to focus on individualism. Karan added that he was asked about his universe of films like the trending horror-comedy verse, and he said his verse was cinema itself. What's Happening Karan Johar recently spoke about how everyone in the film industry is trying to copy each other's success stories. Speaking of the ongoing "herd mentality" that seems to be prevalent in the film business, Karan told Bollywood Hungama, "I think it is everybody grappling to do what others are doing. We see Pushpa running and catering so strongly to the tier-2 and tier-3 audiences, and suddenly, we will see 20 others wanting to do the same. You see Chhaava working, everybody would want to make historicals. Stree and everybody wants to make horror comedies. Those worked because they were individually strong, and there was no other option in that genre. It was a unique thought that made those films work." He added, "We all need to have individual thoughts that are unique to ourselves. Someone asked me the other day, 'Do you have a universe?' I was like, 'As in?' They were like, 'A spy universe or a cop universe.' I was like, 'My universe is cinema itself.' I am not here to build universes, I am here to tell stories. In that story if there's a universe, then why not?" Karan's Latest Achievements Karan Johar recently attended the Cannes 2025 Film Festival. Neeraj Ghaywan's film Homebound, which had Karan Johar as one of its producers, premiered in the Un Certain Regard category.
