Janhvi Kapoor, sister of actor Arjun Kapoor, has spoken out against the online bullying her brother faces, expressing her pain and frustration. She emphasizes the impact of social media culture and the often-negative opinions it fosters, stating, 'It hurts... there’s no excuse for that behavior.'
In an interview with Grazia, Janhvi shared her perspective on social media's influence. She believes that people's online actions are driven by a desire for prominence, views, and virality, making individuals like her brother mere tools for engagement. This realization, she says, helps her detach from the online criticism and not take it personally.
Despite her newfound detachment, Janhvi admitted to the emotional toll of witnessing her brother's online harassment. She compared it to people trying to make ends meet, suggesting that online behavior is often transactional and not deeply personal. She strongly condemned the bullying and harassment her brother experiences, stating, 'There’s no excuse for that kind of behavior.'
Arjun Kapoor's Instagram posts have been a target of negative comments, especially regarding his acting and films. In a recent post, he shared a heartfelt note about his late mother, expressing his struggles but assuring fans of his resilience. The support he received from fans highlights the power of positive responses to counter online negativity.
Looking ahead, Janhvi Kapoor's career is thriving. She was last seen in the film 'Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari' and is set to star in the Telugu film 'Peddi' alongside Ram Charan. The film, directed by Buchi Babu Sana and produced by Venkata Satish Kilaru, also features a talented cast, including Shiva Rajkumar, Jagapathi Babu, Divyendu Sharma, and Boman Irani. It is scheduled for release on April 30th.
