Growing up in the spotlight as the daughter of renowned Bollywood figures Boney Kapoor and Sridevi, Janhvi Kapoor has experienced the constant scrutiny of the paparazzi from a young age.
In a conversation with Newslaundry last year, the actress shed light on the challenges of navigating the intrusive paparazzi culture, especially during her school years alongside her sister Khushi Kapoor.

Janhvi Kapoor shared a troubling incident from her childhood when she stumbled upon paparazzi pictures of herself circulating among her classmates. At just 10 years old, she entered her school's computer lab only to find images of herself captured without her consent, leaving her feeling uncomfortable and exposed. The pictures, accompanied by headlines speculating about her entry into Bollywood, led to her peers viewing her differently and even teasing her about her appearance.
