Janhvi Kapoor has been on roll lately. Her debut film Dhadak released last year and now the actress has two projects in her kitty, both bankrolled by Dharma Productions. While one is Karan Johar's directorial Takht, a multi-starrer period drama, the other is a biopic on Indian Air Force fighter pilot Gunjan Saxena. The movie which is expected to go on floors by March-end will have Janhvi in a different avatar.
The actress has started taking flying lessons to prepare for her role. She also spent some time with Gunjan to understand her story in a better way. Now, a Pinkvilla report states that she has also gained few kilos for her character. Have a look at her pictures below and see for yourself:

For unversed, Gunjan Saxena flew into a combat zone during 1999 Kargil War. She not only evacuated injured soldiers from the war field flying through Kashmir but also experienced a brush with death while doing this. She was later honoured with Shaurya Chakra for her brave act. Dulquer Salmaan will reportedly be paired opposite Janhvi in the biopic.
On the other hand, Janhvi will also play an important role in Karan Johar's directorial Takht, which is a period drama. The multi-starrer film comprises Ranveer Singh, Vicky Kaushal, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Alia Bhatt, Anil Kapoor and Bhumi Pednekar.
On the personal front, Janhvi along with her father Boney Kapoor and sister Khushi Kapoor recently did a puja in Chennai for her late mother Sridevi.
