Janhvi Kapoor, daughter of the late actress Sridevi, is steadily making her mark in Bollywood. She has quickly gained recognition, securing numerous film projects. This indicates that the actress has earned the trust of filmmakers. Initially, Kapoor appeared in a limited number of films. However, she has been actively involved in several major projects in the last two years and has also become a prominent figure in the South Indian film industry. Her recent projects highlight a positive career trajectory.
Kapoor’s career began with the remake of the South Indian film ‘Sairat,’ titled ‘Dhadak.’ The film resonated with audiences. She starred opposite Ishaan Khatter. Following this, her performance in the Gunjan Saxena biopic received critical acclaim. While her initial success was steady, her career has gained significant momentum recently. In 2025, Kapoor has seen the release of ‘Param Sundari,’ ‘Homebound’ (which was India’s official entry for the Oscars), and ‘Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari.’
Despite the positive momentum, none of Kapoor’s 2025 releases have achieved significant box office success. While low-budget South Indian films have performed well, Kapoor’s films have not generated similar earnings. Her film ‘Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari’ is currently in theaters, with expectations for strong performance. Looking back, 2025 has been a better year for Kapoor compared to previous years, with ‘Homebound’ even reaching the Oscars. However, there’s also the acknowledgment that she hasn’t fully capitalized on some opportunities. The success of ‘Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari’ is crucial, as she has no other films scheduled for 2025. She hopes for a successful conclusion to the year with this movie.
Currently, Kapoor is involved in a major South Indian project. She will play the lead role in Buchi Babu’s film ‘Pedi,’ with a budget of approximately 300 crore rupees. She will star opposite South superstar Ram Charan in the film, which is scheduled to release in March 2026.
