Janhvi Kapoor recently opened up on Raj Shamani’s podcast about the immense emotional weight of her mother’s legacy. She reflected on the harsh public scrutiny Sridevi endured, noting that being frequently labeled a 'homewrecker' left a deep, lasting impact on her family. Speaking on the tragedy of her mother’s passing, Janhvi described it as her 'biggest trauma', made even more difficult by having to grieve in the public eye. She admitted to constantly trying to escape the 'inner turmoil' and unresolved feelings that still linger years later.
Janhvi shared that the loss felt like losing both parents at once. She explained that her father, Boney Kapoor, changed fundamentally after Sridevi's death, saying she lost the specific 'version of him' that existed when her mother was alive.
Beyond the superstar persona, Janhvi expressed a deep longing for Sridevi’s humour and the way she anchored the family. She noted that there is truly 'no one like her' and the void left behind continues to shape her, her sister Khushi, and their father.
