Janhvi Kapoor Jokes About Allegations of Paying for Social Media Praise:
Janhvi Kapoor, who stepped into the film industry with her debut in “Dhadak” in 2018, is currently engrossed in the promotional activities for her upcoming film “Ulajh.” Amidst the promotions, she addressed an intriguing topic during a recent interview with Pinkvilla. When the interviewer mentioned that people have been praising her on social media, Janhvi quipped that she was ‘paying them to say it’, adding a humorous twist to the ongoing speculation about her social media presence.
The Allegations and Her Response:
In the interview, when asked about how she perceives her evolution as an actor, Janhvi expressed that she finds it difficult to judge her own performances. She remarked, “Main khud ke baare me kaise baith kar bolu, ‘Main na badi confident ho gayi hu, bade acche acche performances de rahi hu’? Main khud nahi keh sakti na (But how can I sit and say about myself, ‘I have become very confident; I am giving very good performances’? I can’t say it myself).”
When the interviewer pointed out that people have been saying good things about her, Janhvi humorously responded, “Paise khilwa ke bulwa rahi hu (I am paying them to say it).” This light-hearted comment reflects her awareness of the constant scrutiny and the rumors surrounding her public image and social media interactions.
