Janhvi Kapoor made her debut with the film 'Dhadak', which had her sharing screen space with Ishaan Khatter in 2018. Post the Shashank Khaitan-directorial, though she has signed and is shooting for her other projects, she hasn’t had any releases. Meanwhile, her contemporaries like Sara Ali Khan and Ananya Panday have had more than one release at the box office. In her next film, 'Gunjan Saxena: Kargil Girl', she will be seen playing a pilot. The Bollywood actress seems to be gravitating towards roles that are a far cry from the stereotypical roles that actresses in Bollywood are often offered.
