On Sunday morning, people woke up to the news of Sridevi’s sudden death. She was in Dubai to attend her nephew Mohit Marwah’s wedding when she suffered a cardiac arrest on Saturday night, sending her family, fans and Bollywood in shock.
In another interview to DNA, when she was asked about the constant comparisons that Janhvi will have to face after her debut, Sridevi had said, “We can’t run away from that. She has to face the pressure. When she has decided to enter Bollywood, she has to go through all this. She’s prepared for all that, and I am also preparing myself for it. Sometimes, it scares me. So many thoughts come and you feel why is she doing this? But then, if you feel that is her aim and happiness, as a mother, I will support her like my mom supported me. We weren’t from a film background but it happened and she stood by me, fought for me and made sure I am happy. That’s how I would also like to be with Janhvi.”
Janhvi’s Dhadak is set to hit the screens on July 6.
