With several blockbuster films to her credit, Janhvi Kapoor has proved her mettle as a talented actress in Bollywood. She is known to play small-town girl-next-door and non-glam roles in films, however, her social media is a complete contrast to it as her Instagram is flooded with her glamorous pictures and sexy photo shoots. In a recent interview, the Dhadak actress opened up about this contrast and revealed that her social media is to have fun and maybe to get more brands to help ‘pay her EMIs.’
Speaking with Galatta Plus, the 25-year-old actress when asked about her glamourous avatar on social media, explained, “I have been told things like these. ‘The kind of films that you are doing are of a certain beat and your social media presence is quite a contradiction. It will make people harder to buy as those characters if they keep seeing you in this get up’. I am trying to protect myself from being calculative like that. It might throw people off to see me in a Manish Malhotra saree and then in a kurta in a film. But that is my job, my art. I feel very deeply about it and I want to be as real and authentic about it as possible. But I’m not that person in real life. That’s the point of being an actor.”
She added, “I don’t want to take it so seriously. My social media is for me to have fun. Hopefully, if I look cute and five extra people like my pictures, I’ll get another brand and I’ll be able to pay for my EMIs with more ease than I was before.” ALSO READ: WHAT?
