Jr NTR on Janhvi Kapoor`s Resemblance to Her Late Mother Sridevi
Jr NTR expressed how much Janhvi reminds him of her late mother, the iconic actress Sridevi. Reflecting on a moment from the shoot, Jr NTR said, “I remember, there was this photoshoot where we did a look test of sorts. There was this picture of hers, which we released, where she was sitting on the boat and looking at the camera. She looked so much like Sridevi Garu. In certain angles, she just looks like her. We tried to capture a bit of that also on camera, but I don`t think you can capture that in angles. But it is in the way she performs or in the way she smiles. It brings that reminiscence of Sridevi garu back.”Janhvi, clearly touched by the compliment, responded by saying, "It is weird for me to say this, but I feel that more when I perform and speak in Telugu. I don`t know if that makes sense. It just felt more like home to me.”
