It’s a big day for Hindi film actress Janhvi Kapoor who will be marking her Telugu debut ‘Devara: Part 1’. It is a homecoming moment for the actress as her mother, the late Sridevi has extensively worked in Telugu and Tamil cinema. Janhvi is also one-quarter Telugu owing to her grandmother who belongs from Andhra Pradesh. The actress is also making her debut opposite the Telugu industry’s beloved Jr NTR. The superstar also comes from a reputed film family. Their roots are yet another reason that makes this film special for the duo.
At the trailer launch of Devara: Part 1 earlier this month, Janhvi Kapoor spoke highly of her co-star NTR Jr whom she respectfully addressed as sir. "This is my debut film, and honestly, it feels like a homecoming for me as well. This is my first Telugu film and so it's very very very special to me," she said adding that she would love to do all films with Taarak.
