Mr. India, starring Sridevi and Anil Kapoor, is an evergreen film released in 1987. Rumors suggest a sequel may be in the works, with Janhvi Kapoor, Sridevi's oldest daughter, being a perfect fit for the role. Recently, Janhvi shared her thoughts on being a part of this film.
In a recent interview with Pinkvilla, Janhvi Kapoor shared her thoughts on whether there should be a sequel to the iconic film "Mr India." The original film starred Janhvi's late mother, Sridevi, and her uncle, Anil Kapoor, in the lead roles. The possibility of a sequel has been hinted at by Anil Kapoor and producer Boney Kapoor, who described it as a "work-in-progress for a big screen appearance."
She said she trust father's decision,"Mr India is one of the best films to have come out of Indian cinema. I don't know if a film like that should ever be remade or touched again. I don't know what the plans for that are. Again, I think the makers know best. Whoever the director would be, he will know best. Something as pure as that, you can't enforce things on that."
Janhvi further added, "Never have I been like, 'No, I don't want to do this film'. I trust his judgement too much. I never reject it. But I have never put that pressure on him to have me in his film. I am his daughter first and an actress speaking to a producer, second. It's not even in my head. As a daughter, I want him to make decisions that are best for his business model; for his movie. And I only want him to operate in that way, so I haven't ever been like, 'Please take me (in your film).'"
