Janhvi Kapoor discloses she has become more religious after her mother Sridevi’s passing: ‘I never believed in such superstitions’

 

While talking about late actor Sridevi, Janhvi said, “She believed in things like, ‘certain activities should be done on specific dates,’ ‘don’t cut hair on Fridays as it will prevent Goddess Lakshmi from entering the house,’ and ‘avoid wearing black on Fridays.’ I never believed in such superstitions. However, after she passed away, I started believing in them, maybe even too much. I don’t know if I was this religious and spiritually inclined when she was around. [When she was alive] we all followed these practices because Mamma did. But following her demise, the relationship our culture and history have with Hinduism… I think I started taking refuge in our religion a lot more.”

 

"She used to invoke his name all the time, ‘Narayan Narayan Narayan.’ She used to visit the temple every year on her birthday when she was working. After her marriage, she stopped going. Following her death, I decided to visit the temple every year on her birthday. The first time I did, I became very emotional, but I also found great mental peace.” She further expressed.

 

Late icon Sridevi, passed away in 2018 in Dubai hotel due to an accidental drowning. Janhvi was Sridevi and Boney Kapoor’s first child and later became an elder sister to Khushi Kapoor.
