Styled by her cousin Rhea Kapoor, Janhvi looked stunning, like her mother, the late actress Sridevi, in a drape that added a touch of sculptural fluidity.

Janhvi added a touch of Indianness to her look by covering her head with the drape, which looked perfect at the film festival as she represented India. She styled the look by layering pearls. Janhvi’s photos garnered love from her fans, including her family.

One of her fans commented, “Sridevi ki jhalak aati hai Janhvi mein”. Another user said, “Janhvi paid tribute to her mom Sridevi at Cannes”.
