The feisty millennial, Janhvi Kapoor is all set to make her much-awaited silver screen debut with Dhadak opposite Ishaan Khatter. The eldest daughter of Late Sridevi and Boney Kapoor has hit the genetic jackpot of good looks, grace, and poise, and distinctly resembles her mother. She enjoys a tremendous social media presence, 2.1 million followers on Instagram. Janhvi Kapoor is a bonafide fashionista, her stellar style shenanigans even before her debut were lapped up by the fashion conscious masses. While her personal sense of style comprises all that’s in vogue in addition to experimenting with risqué cuts, bold silhouettes and unconventional colours, Janhvi teamed up with ace fashion stylist Tanya Ghavri for the promotions of Dhadak. While she majorly dabbled in traditional and contemporary Indian and neo-ethnic ensembles as her promotional style, she also sported some chic dresses. With her lithe frame, cute smile, large eyes and long locks adding a new wow to any designer ensemble, we couldn’t help but wonder about Janhvi’s promotional style distinctly bearing a resemblance to her mother’s off-screen style.

We all know how stunning Sridevi was, her ageless poise and grace was exemplary. Jhanvi Kapoor strides in with an uncannily similar flair of elegance and a serious whiff of confidence, just like her mother. An alumnus of the famed Lee Strasburg Theatre and Film Institute and a trained Bharatnatyam dancer, Jhanvi is slated to spell magic with Dhadak and is a diva in her own right. Here is a closer look at how Janhvi has emulated her mother in her fashionable tidings.
