Janhvi Kapoor has received a lot of acclaim for her performance in Gunjan Saxena but when asked about the trolls she had to face, she said it hurt her father and filmmaker Boney Kapoor.

Janhvi Kapoor's Gunjan Saxena began streaming on Netflix from August 12 onwards and critics lauded the way debutant director handled the subject that never bordered on jingoism and how he extracted restrained and rousing performances from his actors. Kapoor was singled out for her innocence and the way she mounded her character.
However, ever since the unfortunate demise of Sushant Singh Rajput, social media users have been critical of star kids and filmmakers that have worked with them repeatedly in films. Amid such backlash, Kapoor's film came under the radar too and faced a lot of hatred. And the actress talked about it in an interview with Anupama Chopra of Film Companion.
