There is a realignment happening in the film industry, but that doesn’t mean that a good film won’t get its due: Janhvi

I’ve bared my soul in Mili. I can’t ever be shy in front of the camera again: Janhvi

While she is beautifully romancing the camera, and in her own words sharing a certain ‘intimacy’ with it, with every film, Janhvi Kapoor is forming a connect, a relationship with the audience. When asked about it, she unflinchingly says, “It’s tough to have an objective view of how people look at you. It keeps changing.” That’s Jahnvi for you, whether it’s a conversation or a portrayal (on screen), her honesty and vulnerability add that special something to her persona. She leads the show in yet another performance-driven film, Mili, backed by her father, Boney Kapoor, in collaboration with Zee Studios. The survival thriller, where she is trapped in a freezer, releases today. It’s probably the only time she froze in front of the camera, literally. In a chat with us, Janhvi talks about the film choices she has made, the direction she wants to head, and what moves her heart. Read on…

Your films, Gunjan Saxena – The Kargil Girl, Roohi, Good Luck Jerry, and now Milihave you playing the titular role. It reflects your choice of films – performance-driven, unpredictable and each starkly different from the other. Is it by design or coincidence?

I think it is a coincidence. It never occurred to me until it was pointed out. It was never my approach or plan, as I look at every film as an opportunity to grow as an actor. It so happened that these films offered me the most scope from what I was getting.

Song and dance there, but where is Brazil's soul?
