In a rare outpouring, Sridevi’s first born opens up about her spiritual connect with the late actress

At an event last year, Janhvi Kapoor casually mentioned to a stunned audience that she had temporarily given up non-vegetarian food as part of a mannat she took in the hope of getting a role. “Kaafi sanskari ladki hoon main, mini skirt mein!” the 22-year-old actor joked. But she wasn’t really joking. The Bollywood-born daughter of the late superstar Sridevi and producer Boney Kapoor has been exploring spirituality and religion over the last year or so. It seems to bring her closer to her mother.
