Janhvi Kapoor has often spoken about her late mother, actress Sridevi and the profound impact she had on her life. Recently, the Paran Sundari actress opened up about Sridevi’s death and expressed that the media scrutinised all her moves, and the loss of her mother turned into entertainment for half the nation. Sridevi passed away in February 2018 due to an accidental drowning in a hotel in Dubai. Janhvi made her showbiz debut the same year with Dhadak. In an interview, Janhvi shared that the media was too harsh on her, no matter what she did. She also questioned the lack of empathy around this incident.

“I would be hounded by the media, and if I smiled to promote my film, I was criticised for seeming too okay. If I was quiet, then I was perceived as too cold. It’s unfathomable that it could become a meme. Imagine losing your mother, and it’s entertainment for half the nation,” the actress told Vogue.

She continued, “My sister and I have never let them see the cracks, and because of this, people have felt they can throw mud at us, that we are not really human. That took empathy and sympathy completely out of the question. I don’t think anyone can understand what we went through. The loss is one thing, but the damage that came after really made me cynical about human nature.”
