WHEN JANHVI KAPOOR CRITICISED HER OWN PERFORMANCE IN 'DHADAK'
Janhvi Kapoor had once humbly admitted to feeling a lack of technical knowledge and mentioned that she relied solely on her heart during her debut performance in the film 'Dhadak'. In an interview with BBC Asian Network, she had expressed her thoughts on her performance, stating, "I think I lacked confidence and my language was an issue. I think I was a little stiff in places. I think that one thing I had working for me is that I tried to bring a lot of honesty and sensitivity to it. I think the emotionality of it was in the right place."

Acknowledging her own limitations, she continued, "Maybe it was all heart but it lacked a lot of technical understanding and a lot of finesse. I lacked technical understanding and maybe my skill set wasn’t as polished. It’s weird saying this about myself but I think I felt honest onscreen.”

Despite her self-critique, both Janhvi's performance and the film received positive reviews. In an interview with Hindustan Times following the film's release, she expressed her gratitude for the overwhelming love and support. She added, "the love has been overwhelming. More than anything else, it feels good to know that we’ve moved people with this message that we were trying to convey. I’m just happy about any form of acceptance, so I have a chance to work more and do better at what I love. To see my father (film producer Boney Kapoor), Shashank (Khaitan, director of Dhadak) and Karan (Johar, producer of Dhadak) feeling so proud and happy means the world to me.”
