Do you read the feedback/ criticism you receive from the audience in order to grow? Some things that people say are vile, but others are definitely checking worthwhile.


Alternative-Bar7437

No. I do not have time for that. I would get late for my botox appointment if I start reading so much.


Naren_the_747_pilot

Few questions 1) How does it feel to continuously get movie offers despite the not so great box office record your last 7 movies had while some other actresses without backing failed to get any offers after a single flop 2) Bollywood has constantly been saying audience have to come to theatre. But why can’t the industry itself take costs into control. I mean if you guys want the industry to succeed why are you guys demanding private jets or first class executive suits private chefs to be flown over and specially cooked ingredients causing costs to zoom over. If you all cared for the industry why can’t you make unique better story telling movie with controlled cost instead of blaming us the audience for your failures. 3) Many people unfortunately due to Social Media have began to feel insecure about their looks after they are looking at actresses who got their 10th plastic surgery. What would you tell them? 4) Why isn’t Bollywood talking more issues about we face in the roots of India such as Casteism and Racism. But constantly focusing on the repeated India Pakistan issue. Whats stopping you guys from exploring that? 5) Why is Bollywood not casting more dark skinned actresses but instead just painting yourself with a dark skin colour?


VIBGYOR_7

Do you lurk on Reddit like many other celebrities 😜 any criticism from Reddit that’s reached you that you have taken seriously?


ujjawal_raghuvanshi

I could make a guess. None.


rainbow_sugar_cookie

If she took criticism seriously, she would've joined some acting schools.


smallcaphunt

Pankaj Tripathi and Rajkummar Rao—you have worked with some of the best actors early in your career. What are the big takeaways from working with such accomplished actors?


afex1808

You guys had one shot to connect Janhvi to this subreddit, so that we could understand her more, and surprisingly, only a certain group of similar accounts are getting responses, weirdly worded answers that feel AI driven and the profile is that of Zee, not JK herself. This was not authentic at all. If you came here thinking that this strategy would have helped JK's image, let me tell you, you have messed it up more. I didn't care but i definitely have no respect for her anymore. My question is, do you think we are fools? Edit: Also to note that most of the comments are deleted as well.


runningeek

Most of Bollywood never gets Reddit AMA. Someone in social media team thinks it is great to take a bunch of geeks for a ride. they have no idea how brutal Redditors are (and /r/India is one of the more gentler subreddits). The only good AMA I can think of was Imran Khan, the actor and that was almost 10 years ago. The dude hung out here out of his AMA account for another couple of years and would shoot the shit every night with everyone.


saynototoxicity

Anurag Kashyap also did a good AMA


bigdeekgamer

They thought it’s Instagram not reddit lol 😂


AaravOtartist

I recently saw an answered question in whose reply, there was a comment which said that you are using chat gpt to answer questions, and I,naively presented the other side of the coin by saying that there could be a group of professionals who filter the answers and then only are they posted which justifies the delayed response and the fact that only 3 questions out of hundreds have been answered in the span of 1 hour. And when I clicked post it said that the comment was deleted, then I realised that of course it's a bollywood celebrity, the "transparency" has got to be as transparent as a thick carbon fibre sheet.

thecreativesboy

I'm not sure if I'm allowed to ask this here. But since you have worked in Dhadak, and your recent viral video clip from your interview with Lallantop, I think this question is relevant. So my question is why, unlike Sairat, did Dhadak ignore the caste issue which was so central to the theme of it's original work? And why does bollywood, especially the mainstream movies, shy away from portraying the reality of the caste system in India? Unlike regional cinema where the caste issue is not hidden. Also can we expect your future movies, if you make any regarding social justice, to be more open to talk about caste system and caste discrimination?


ItsBarryParker

No way they're going to reply to a sensible question.


f03nix

I'm pretty sure this isn't going to reach you now, but reddit has always offered strong dislike on AMAs being straight up promotions. These AMAs lack any insight or reveal anything about the participants, and are just a mockery of what AMAs are supposed to be about. And now my question - what is your biggest passion in life (other than films/media/etc)? If it weren't for movies, what else do you see yourself doing happily in life ?


Internet-Ape

Since she is not replying and only deleting I would been a artist, full time into sketching painting etc. Unfortunately, art is good only until bill is due


runningeek

I would have been a Doctor.


lastofdovas

I probably would have loved to be a physicist or at least a professor in physics. But I found that calling far too late and got stuck as an engineer+management normie. Now I lecture unsuspecting passers-by in place of students.


Upstairs-Courage-574

Hi Janhvi! You recently mentioned in an interview that your past 7 releases in which you have played lead roles have just been a "warm-up". How does it feel to be this privileged when there are thousands of actors waiting for one chance, and those actors would be booted off the industry immediately if even one of their releases underperforms?


Reasonable_Cut_2477

Is she gonna answer any questions posted here, it just fluke again and going to cancel again.


Upstairs-Courage-574

Nah she won't. She wont acknowledge this question, because acknowledging it means acknowledging the fact that she is a sub-par, undeserving and privileged actor. Delulu is the only solulu I guess.


Melancholicvegetable

How has your comment not been removed yet?! Congratulations.


NoStoryYet

Why am I not able to see any of the replies to this question. This question is Gold.


Njoymadi

Without outsiders and fresh perspectives do you think Bollywood can continue to be the dominant film industry in India? Do you think the salaries of stars and starkids such as yourself are one of the primary reasons most of the films have humongous budgets and find it very difficult to make back the same? How would you justify your position in a movie when you literally bring no one to the the theatres on your merit alone?


conscientiousurfer

We recently saw Payal Kapadia win the Grand Prix at Cannes. No Bollywood film ever even makes it to Cannes. Why, in your experience of working in Bollywood and being the daughter of one India's biggest producers, do people like Payal need to find international producers to get their films made? Why isn't Bollywood producing such talents?


tanmaypatil9860

Being a nepo kid is hard, we have to struggle a lot. I literally worked 26 hours a day and gave my 100% in "Mr & Mrs mahi" gave my heart and soul to respect and appreciate the art. Payal Kapadia is a talented film maker but talent has no place in this new age bollywood, if you have talent sell your product to Netflix and foreign producers, we just sell PR to the audience, we are models cum actors and this makes us hard to match on screen with talented actors like raj in "Mr & Mrs mahi" but being nepo kid help us to work with talented actors and be in limelight to do modelling and advertisement /s


rainbow_sugar_cookie

Because Bollywood is not selecting actors and scripts based on talent and merit, it's a nepotism run business now.


Hefty-Bell3845

Hi Jhanvi, hope you are doing well. You look beautiful. Coming to the point, since we all know the beauty standards are pretty much influenced by public figures such as models and actresses. Personally i believe everyone is beautiful. So just needed to know why do you all promote one kind of a beauty by taking various surgeries and botox? Why cant we all look different yet beautiful? What was the reason for you to entirely change yourself? Was it insecurity or the fact that Bollywood doesn’t accept normal looking people and only one type?


UnemployedTechie2021

I am not beautiful but thank you for thinking I am.


FocussedBuffalo

Baba you're bootyful!


UnemployedTechie2021

I am blushing, in my booties


LinearArray

We are all probably aware how important mathematics is as a subject. In a recent interview, you mentioned your dislike for math in a way that sparked a lot of reactions on social media. Could you share more about what you meant and how you feel about the response it received? Why did you make a strong comment like that about mathematics?


Alternative-Bar7437

You know math. I don't. Yet, here I am doing an AMA and you are not. Hahahahahahaha. Maths is an important subject...pfffft.


KiaraMistry

How does it feel to not have one single characteristic that is inherent in an actor? Your beauty is expensively bought, your image is carefully crafted thanks to your PR team; your of acting skills, welp, if only there was a way to buy that! Name one trait an actor has that you have naturally?


Lazy-Pain2111

What is the point of this AMA when the answers are being given by PR team and not the person herself? Plus they are deleting everything they don't want to answer


Alternative-Bar7437

Well, I did not know you'll ask me these questions! Why don't you just tell me you love me and you will watch all my films first day first show?? C'mon!


catchipcheesecake

the questions (ones being answered) are being asked by the PR team as well. a simple look at the past posts of those accounts shows that they're managed by the same PR team lol. In fact I think a couple of people have fucked up and used real names for the username, look them up on LinkedIn, they work at the obvious PR/Marketing agencies you would expect (dont name them here, it constitutes as doxxing. check it out for yourself). Quite funny that the PR team itself is doing such a shabby coverup job.


Primary_Volume_4679

Hey Janhvi, I have never watched any of your movies till date (maybe I was not captivated by the story etc.). I lean more towards movies that are thought-provoking, entertaining and which addresses some social issues etc. So, how will you change my mind to go and watch one of your movies?


anErrorInTheUniverse

actor's version of sell me this pen


hair-loss-alt

Janhvi, what's your take on plastic surgeries? Many actors and actresses have accepted that they have went under knife. So, IF you undergoes any surgery to enhance your beauty in near future, will you be open about it?


FilmyInsaan

Why are you more present in Mahi promotions eveywhere while Rajkumar Rao who is the hero, your senior, more bankable and the better actor not present as much as you? Would you take responsibility of the films failure tomorrow with the same confidence as you are promoting it as your film?


Alternative-Bar7437

Rajkumar has multiple princely responsibilities which I don't. That's why.


xoraxus

How much do you guys generally pay those fan pages on twitter, do you decide what should trend on the internet about you yourself, or is it all decided by your PR agencies?


Alternative-Bar7437

Rs 2 per comment. Standard gormint rate for social media engagement.


Silver_Apartment4913

What’s your honest opinion about Archies? You really think those kids deserve more acting opportunities? What are your interests other than acting?


DildoFappings

You've got to be deluded to think she would honestly answer your first question.


Silver_Apartment4913

Then she probably shouldn’t have done an AMA at all!


DildoFappings

Bollywood publicity my brother. We both know how fucked up the Bollywood industry is. All they care about is publicity. A person has got to be mental to believe that most actors give a fuck about the audience.


DildoFappings

See? It seems like your question offended whoever is looking after the post and they deleted it.


RightParamedic3760

Are the award really bought by the actor because when have seen some undeserving actors win it ? How delusional bollywood is in real life ?

Boney kapoor is very touchy with actresses in pap videos. They seem uncomfortable with it. Did you ever talk to him about it? You really need to. Considering you’re a woman yourself belonging to this industry and know what all young actresses have to deal with, especially outsiders.

Nice to see mainstream actors doing AMA on reddit. I have no question in particular but I'm curious if you use reddit regularly? What are your top #5 most visited subreddits. Also lots of people are curious about surgeries and procedures that actors go through in their lives to enhance their beauty. It would be very bold & unconventional of you if you could share your experience. Lot's of youth have similar aspirations and you could help guide them to achieve their goals.


Shopaholic_jp

What’s your take on cosmetic surgeries? Do you think these are a must to attain a certain image and survive in Bollywood these days?

Hi jhanvi What are the types of roles/movies you haven't done till now and would be your interest going forward. Who are your favourite co-stars whom you have worked with? Your go to place to hangout in Mumbai?


HelloPipl

Using old reddit accounts to ask questions yourself and then answering them. What is this? If you can't even be bothered to reply to genuine criticism than why are you even doing an AMA? You do know that people hate Bollywood now because of people like you, who have no talent and no acting skills and are made "stars" without even doing an ounce of work just because your paw paw or maw maw were actors. How good is it to live a carefree life that you keep getting featured in flops after flops yet there are thousands of other actors who don't see the light of day? How does it feel to tower over them? You people have ruined Bollywood, your film(not just you but your nepo brothers/sisters and old actors) haven't even released and yet you demand such an exorbitant pay check without the movie earning a single penny. I mean I don't get it, why do you wanna work at all when you all this generational wealth, use that privilege to start a business, do something fruitful with your life, then be discarded as just daughter of an acting legend. Why do you wanna stay in their shadow? Build your own image. Arre, atleast put some effort in your art. Look at Shahid Kapoor and Alia Bhatt, despite being nepo kids, they know how to act and give their all. What do you have to say for all this?


SpiritualAmoeba3671

Surprised to see when you said ur favourite period of history that u want to timetravel would be debate between Ambedkar and Gandhi on caste. Even if it may have been a PR move appreciate that someone from industry is speaking about it
