Janhvi on her mother's death
During her appearance on Koffee With Karan, Janhvi recalled the day her mother died. When Karan asked about Sridevi's death and how it was a 'tough burden' to take at that age, Janhvi replied, "When I got the call, I was in my room, and I could hear wailing from Khushi's room, and I think I barged into her room howling and crying. But what I do remember is, she looked at me and the minute she looked at me, she stopped crying. She just stopped crying. She sat next to me and started comforting me. And I have never seen her cry about it since."
Janhvi, who was last seen in Ulajh alongside actor Gulshan Devaiah, has Devara, featuring Jr NTR and Saif Ali Khan.
