This Hollywood actor has inspired Janhvi Kapoor in terms of fashion, know why

Janhvi Kapoor said on her Instagram Stories that she is “heavily inspired” by Zendaya’s appearances during the marketing of Dune 2 and Challengers, and she is attempting to emulate it for her own film, Mr. & Mrs. Mahi, which she released the teaser for on Sunday.

Janhvi drives inspiration from….

“Is it true that you’re copying Zendaya?” a fan asked Janhvi during a recent AMA session on her Instagram Stories. In response to this query, she stated, “Yes, I think I am very heavily inspired by what she [Zendaya] did for her Challengers and Dune promotions. And not just her, even Uorfi [Javed]. How creative she is with her fashion. I feel like as actors we all are encouraged to kind of do method dressing or dress similar to your characters while promoting a film. I haven’t really done it except for Dhadak but when I saw her doing it so well, dressed up in accordance to the theme of the film… I realized that as actors there is a good amount of attention put on how we look and how we dress, and if I can use that to bring attention back to my film then why not?”

“Mother Zendaya showed us the way. She showed us how to do it really well. So yes, definitely inspired by that and just hoping to follow her footsteps,” she further said. Over the past few months, Zendaya has been touring the world to promote her films Challengers and Dune 2, wearing back-to-back red carpet looks.

In a clear reference to her role in the movie Mr. & Mrs. Mahi, where she dons a number 6 jersey, Janhvi recently wore an ensemble in which her top bore the number 6. In addition, she promoted the movie last week by donning a crimson cut-out dress with cricket balls pinned to the back. Her character, a doctor, was seen in the teaser going through a rigorous training regimen to become a cricket player. On May 31, the Sharan Sharma-directed movie opens in theaters.

Along with Ulajh, she made her Telugu film debut in Devara: Part 1 alongside Jr. NTR.
