Janhvi Kapoor is all set to make her big screen debut with Dhadak starring Ishaan Khatter. It is a dream debut for any newcomer but it is although more special for Janhvi as it was her mom Sridevi s dream to see her doting daughter excel in her filmy career. Karan, her mentor, did not leave any stone unturned to make sure that her debut is spectacular. This moment therefore is laced with bittersweet emotions from Janhvis side. While talking to India Today magazine she shared this and said that if not for the film, her life would have been purposeless for her after Sridevis sudden death a few months ago. She said, It hasnt been an easy experience. My work and my family have given me the strength to go on. If it wasnt for coming back to the sets of Dhadak or being able to act, I think it would have been much tougher than what it is now. I am very thankful that I had the opportunity to work in the film and act. It saved me in many ways.
