Actor Janhvi Kapoor enjoys a massive fan following on social media. The 'Mili' actor recently opened up about her being glamorous in real life and portraying absolutely different characters on screen. The actor said, 'social media is for me to have fun.'
Talking about the same, in an exclusive interview with Galatta Plus, the 'Dhadak' actor said, '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.'
'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,' she concluded.
On the work front, Janhvi’s 'Mili' was released in theatres on November 4. Directed by Mathukutty Xavier, the film is a remake of the Malayalam film 'Helen'. The film is reportedly struggling at the box office, earning less than ₹2 crore in its opening weekend. She also has Nitesh Tiwari’s directorial 'Bawaal' co-starring Varun Dhawan in her kitty.
