Janhvi Kapoor once told someone that Orry was her husband so that the stranger wouldn’t flirt with her.
Janhvi Kapoor is now seen in Param Sundari.
Param Sundari, starring Janhvi Kapoor and Sidharth Malhotra, is finally out in theatres. The stars recently appeared in IMDb’s original series ‘Speed Dating’ where they shared their take on romance and first dates. Janhvi recalled how she would avoid unwanted advances from men and even opened up about her idea of love.
On her most ridiculous excuse to turn down unwanted advances, Janhvi Kapoor revealed, “I’ve said I’m married a lot. Someone coming up to me in person has mostly been outside of India. A lot of waiters in LA would send me their phone number or get me something that I didn’t order. I was with Orry once and said he’s my husband.”
Janhvi Kapoor also revealed her dealbreaker for a first date, she said, “The first date is a big one. They shouldn’t show up late; in fact, they should show up early. They should seem nervous.” She continued, “Intangible and emotional gestures mean a lot more to me than tangible materialistic things.”
Sharing a romantic thing a partner has done to impress her, Janhvi Kapoor said, “I would say he had taken a really long trip, gone through a long journey to come and meet me for a short span of time. Once from London to Bombay, to see me for just like 5 hours because I had a really bad dream and I was panicking.”
On being asked about her learnings about love through the making of Param Sundari, she said, “I don’t think love is only romantic. There is a lot of love we both have towards our work. During our tough days, it wasn’t thinking about the finish line or how maybe we’ll reap certain rewards that was making us go through with it. I think it was purely for the love of cinema, or the idea that we’ll create something that is fun and memorable to watch.”
Param Sundari Review
Meanwhile, News18 Showsha gave Param Sundari 3.5/5 stars. Our review read, “This isn’t a film that preaches or complicates. It doesn’t carry hidden messages or moral burden. It just wants you to feel the giddiness of first love, the ache of uncertainty, and the relief of choosing heart over head. And in that, it succeeds.”
“In the end, Param Sundari is a comfort food cinema. Paneer Butter Masala, idli-sambar, choose your metaphor. Familiar, yes, but warm, fragrant, and deeply satisfying. It may not aspire to gourmet innovation, but it fills the heart with the uncomplicated sweetness of first love, and the nostalgia of a genre once adored but now endangered. It leaves you smiling, maybe even believing, however briefly, in the miracle of soulmates, algorithm or no algorithm,” the review also mentions.
