Janhvi Kapoor REACTS to Internet gasping over her viral ‘Gandhi-Ambedkar debate’ remark; slashes claims of it being a ‘PR Plug’

As a fervent admirer of Janhvi Kapoor, I have always been captivated by her fearless spirit and unapologetic nature. Her unwavering commitment to expressing her opinions, no matter the consequences, is truly inspiring. In an industry where self-censorship is often the norm, Janhvi stands out as a beacon of authenticity.


I’m a big fan of the wisdom shared by Late American actress Eartha Kitt. She once said, “My secret to living is not being afraid of who I am, or what I think, or my opinions.” In today’s fast-paced global world, this sentiment rings true more than ever. While many actors, including those in Indian showbiz, tend to keep quiet to avoid controversy, actress Janhvi Kapoor boldly speaks her mind and calls things as she sees them.

I’m absolutely thrilled about the intriguing interview our beloved debutant, Janhvi Kapoor, had with Mashable India. During this conversation, she was asked about her viral comment expressing a desire to witness a debate between Mahatma Gandhi and BR Ambedkar. While many were praising her curiosity, some critics perceived her statement as an attempt to seek unnecessary attention or PR stunts. However, I firmly believe that her fascination with history and politics is genuine, and this incident only highlights her passion as a fan.

The host reported that Janhvi’s comment drew a collective gasp from the internet, leaving the 27-year-old actress questioning, “Is it really so surprising for a young female actor to have an opinion?” Recalling the incident, Kapoor mentioned that despite speculation that it was a public relations stunt or attempt to gain attention, her team aimed to distance themselves from that statement.

After the Lallantop interview, Janhvi confessed that she became anxious the very next day. She shared, “I mentioned that our film (Mr. & Mrs. Mahi) was about to premiere. I was unsure of how people would react and if my statements were appropriate.” According to her account, her team also grew concerned and promptly contacted the channel where the interview was broadcasted, asking them to take down that specific segment.

According to Janhvi, her team rejected the idea of airing that segment. She finds it surprising that despite this, people believe she was coached to make the controversial statements that gained attention following the broadcast.

How did Janhvi Kapoor get intrigued about the world outside cinema?

In an interview, Janhvi expressed her surprise at realizing she was part of a larger society despite having limited knowledge about her Hindu culture and the background of the renowned figure residing on Ambedkar Road – Dr. B.R. Ambedkar. Her newfound curiosity led her to explore these subjects proudly today.
