Actress Janhvi Kapoor recently opened up about her “first-ever serious boyfriend.” In the latest episode of ‘Swipe Ride,’ she revealed that it was her parents who did not approve of the boy, and her relationship ended soon afterwards.
She said, “My first ever serious boyfriend was that same chup chup ke milenge (meet in hiding), jhooth bol bol ke (we will lie about each other), all of that and but unfortunately that relationship ended because I had to lie so much and mom and dad were like 'No you will never have a boyfriend'... very conservative. And that's when I realized having your parents approval and having transparency with them makes everything so easy. It makes you feel so much more confident about your decisions.”
In the same episode, Janhvi also admitted that Bollywood has influenced her expectations on love a lot. “There’s a lot of fun in staring out of the window… watching the rain drops fall.” The ‘Bawaal’ actress is rumoured to be dating Shikhar Pahariya. An entrepreneur, he is the grandson of former Maharashtra chief minister Sushil Kumar Shinde.
On the work front, Janhvi will now be seen in ‘Mr and Mrs Mahi’ with Rajkummar Rao. She was last seen in Nitesh Tiwari’s ‘Bawaal’ which was released on Prime Video last month.
