Arjun Kapoor opens up about sister Janhvi Kapoor
Since the moment the news of Arjun Kapoor and sister Janhvi Kapoor’s appearance on Karan Johar’s most popular chat show Koffee With Karan 6 hit the internet, fans have been waiting to watch the episode. This is no news that Arjun and Janhvi have come close only after Bollywood actress and Janhvi’s mother Sridevi’s death in February this year. While Arjun hasn’t been able to spend a lot of time with Janhvi or Khushi, he feels like after his appearance on KWK with Janhvi, he is able to know his sister in a much better way.
While talking about Janhvi to Mid-Day, Arjun Kapoor revealed that he is thankful to Karan Johar that he got to know Janhvi on the show. Talking about the same, Arjun said, “When Karan Johar told me that this was the combination, I was pleasantly surprised, because I am the buffoon and prankster on Koffee With Karan. I thought that I'll get to spend some time with Janhvi. Honestly, I haven't been able to spend time with her. In February (when Sridevi passed away) I was shooting for Namaste England.”
He added, “I literally entered into their lives as the whirlwind of chaos. I did my bit and whatever I could. My sister allowed to welcome them as our family, or at least put them at ease at that moment, and simplify things as much as we could by being supportive. And, then I had to disappear and go work. She had Dhadak releasing. When the trailer came out, I was not in town, and when the film was releasing, I came back a day before. Now I was away for India's Most Wanted (next film) for a month-and-a-half in Nepal. So, I have also kind of been away from her and Khushi Kapoor. I've met them in between. We've had dinners at home and obviously, they spend a lot more time with Anshula Kapoor, and so with my dad (Boney Kapoor). Now that I look back, I haven't spent any time with them. I felt it was a nice way of me getting to know her,” he added.
Arjun was all praise for his little sister Janhvi and claimed that she is a sorted girl who knows what she wants. “I did get to know her a lot better, off camera also. She's a very sorted girl. She's sensible and funny, and also has quite a few hidden talents that came around in the show; just like how I am, a hidden gem (laughs). I think this was meant to be that we would discover each other. What Karan does is, he allows you to be in a comfortable environment and that kind of let's go your inhibitions that maybe I and she would have taken a couple of more dinners and lunches and maybe a holiday or two. Now, suddenly after spending two hours, I feel like I've known her all my life. I can only be thankful to Karan for choosing this combination.”
