Janhvi also later spoke about it and said, “I am her daughter so zaahir hai ki main unki tarah hi dikhungi (It’s obvious that I would look like her). But my mum holds such a strong space in people’s heart and had a very personal connect. I hope I can please her fans also in some way in a bid to show gratitude for all the love she got. I hope I am given an opportunity to create my own identity. I don’t think anyone can be like her. What she had to offer to films and to people’s lives was greater than what any artiste could.”
Sridevi’s demise back in 2018 came as a shock to the entire world. She was the first female superstar of Bollywood and her contribution to cinema was incredible.
Well, Janhvi Kapoor is surely making her late mum proud by delivering back to back amazing performances.
