WHAT! Janhvi Kapoor REFUSES To Star In Late Mom Sridevi's Biopic? Actress Says, ‘Mujhe Rona Nahi Hai Stage Pe'
Actress Janhvi Kapoor is leaving no stone unturned to promote her upcoming film ‘Mili’, where she plays the role of a nurse. The Dhadak star is currently busy promoting the same and during media interviews, she has been making some candid confessions. In a recent interview, Janhvi was asked if she would ever be a part of a remake of her late mother Sridevi’s films. Even she was quizzed about if she would ever play her late mother in a biopic.

In an interview, the Roohi star pointed out that she feels that nobody can pull off to play her late legendary mom on the silver screen and thus no one should attempt to remake her mom’s iconic films. When asked if she would play her late mother in a biopic, Janhvi stated, “Sir woh bhi bahut lamba answer hai aur mujhe bhook lagi hai, aur mujhe rona nahi hai stage pe. Acha din hai toh avoid karte hai (Sir there’s a big answer for this and I am hungry right now, and I don’t want to cry on stage. The day is good so let’s avoid it).” ALSO READ: Sridevi Birth Anniversary: Janhvi Kapoor Digs Out A Priceless Memory With Her Mom; Says ‘Everything Is For You, Always, Every Day’
