In the video shared by the official Instagram page of The Archies, the actors were asked to tell one thing about themselves that nobody knows. First up was Vedang Raina who expressed his love for gaming. “An unhealthy amount. I do a lot of it,” he shared.
Next was Janhvi Kapoor’s sister Khushi Kapoor who confessed that she is ‘weirdly punctual’. “I think it physically hurts me to be late for anything.

Zoya Akhtar’s experience of shooting with Khushi Kapoor
Recently at IFFI, the filmmaker said that she felt old while shooting with them. Recalling an incident with Khushi, Zoya shared, “There is one shot, and Betty, being played by Khushi Kapoor, has to pick up the needle and put it on the vinyl, which is the record player. So, we are there behind the camera and we see her picking it up and putting it in the center. I was like ‘What are you doing?’ She was like, ‘Isn’t that where the music comes from?’ I said, ‘no.’ And you realize how young they are.”
