Janhvi Kapoor Recalls Mom Sridevi's Strict Advice

Janhvi Kapoor and Roshan Mathew recently appeared on the IMDb exclusive segment ‘On The Scene’ to talk about their film Ulajh. Directed by Sudhanshu Saria, the movie narrates a gripping story of love, sacrifice, and resilience in the face of overwhelming odds.

When asked what one thing she would never do for a role, Kapoor mentioned that she would not go bald, even if it was a life-changing, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. She said, “They can just put a bald cap on or use VFX. I have dislocated my shoulder, I’ve bled, broken bones, and put myself through all kinds of trauma and torture, but going bald is something I refuse to do. Even for my character in Ulajh, Sudhanshu wanted me to cut my hair short and it was my biggest fight with him. Because I remember during Dhadak when I cut my hair, my mom yelled at me a lot and she was like, ‘how could you? Do not cut your hair for any role.’ Every third or fourth day, she used to put oil in my hair and massage my head. She was very proud of my hair. So I will not cut my hair.”
