Bollywood actor Janhvi Kapoor is opening up about her rumored boyfriend Shikhar Pahariya, and it’s all about fun and comfort. In a recent conversation with Raj Shamani, Janhvi shared how she feels completely at ease with him. "There's no one else I have more fun with," she said, showing that their relationship is full of joy and playfulness.
She added that Shikhar gives her a safe space where she can be like a kid and be her true self. It’s a relationship where she can relax and be real, something not often talked about in Bollywood.
When filmmaker Karan Johar once asked her about dating Shikhar, she didn’t reveal everything but did say he has always felt like family. He is close not just to her, but also to her sister Khushi and their father. She described him as selfless and dignified, someone who is always there without expecting anything in return.
For those unfamiliar, Shikhar Pahariya comes from a well-known family. He is the grandson of former Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde, and his mother, Smruti Shinde, is an actor. His brother Veer Pahariya recently made his debut in the film Sky Force alongside Akshay Kumar and Sara Ali Khan.
Talking about her career, Janhvi is currently working on Dharma Productions’ upcoming action film Lag Jaa Gale with Lakshya and Tiger Shroff. The film, directed by Raj Mehta, is being shot in Mumbai.
She has also received attention for her recent film Homebound, directed by Neeraj Ghaywan, which was shortlisted for the Best International Feature Film category at the 98th Academy Awards.
