Janhvi Kapoor, daughter of late actress Sridevi and producer Boney Kapoor made her Bollywood debut four years ago with Dharma Productions Dhadak alongside Shahid Kapoor's half-brother and actor Ishaan Khatter. Dhadak which was a remake of Marathi hit Sairat raked in Rs. 8.71 crore on its opening day and crossed the Rs.100 crore mark within 10 days. The audience loved the chemistry between the debutants in the film. In no time, entertainment galore was buzzing with rumours of them dating. The duo was seen together on several occasions, however, they never made their relationship official. Recently when the actress was asked about her relationship with the actor, she opened up about her equation with Ishaan and revealed that even though they don't talk as often as they used to, they meet each other warmly.
During an interview with RJ Siddharth Kannan, when Janhvi was told that people still praise her for Dhadak and talk about the film she was surprised. She said, "Mere se toh nahi baat kar rahe (They do not talk to me about this)."
She further said, "No, no, it was a very special film. We’re so busy now in our own lives. But every time we meet, there's a warmth. In fact, Rangisari, the song from JugJugg Jeeyo, was supposed to be in Dhadak. Every time we’d shoot montages for Dhadak, we’d play that song. So, when it came out, both of us kind of felt like it was our song. We texted each other, and he was like, 'Did you see it?’ and I was like, 'Yeah, it felt kind of funny.'"
