Janhvi Kapoor is one of the finest talented young actresses in the entertainment industry.

Janhvi Kapoor reveals Bawaal’s OTT release was ‘first jhatka’ for her 

In an interview with Film Companion, Janhvi Kapoor said that she fought to be a part of Bawaal, and adjusted her schedule around to ensure that she was able to do the film. But the first setback came when she was told that the movie wouldn’t be released in theatres at all. 

The actress shared that she was in the middle of shooting Mahi, and that film was delayed because she had injured her shoulder. “I thought this is my moment, I’m getting to perform, it’s Nitesh Tiwari, it’s Sajid Nadiadwala, it’s Varun (Dhawan), and I’m not just dancing and giggling. I put all of my eggs in that basket. And the first ‘jhatka’ was that it’s turned out to be the kind of film that the makers feel should be on an OTT platform. This was a big blow to me, because I was looking for not just validation, but also numbers from that film,” added Janhvi.
