Janhvi will be seen making her debut in 'Dhadak', a film which is directed by Shashank Khaitan and produced by Karan Johar's Dharma Productions. In an interview with India Today, Janhvi bared her heart and revealed how difficult it has been for her to come to terms with Sridevi's untimely death.


She told India Today, “It hasn't been an easy experience. My work and my family have given me the strength to go on. If it wasn't for coming back to the sets of Dhadak or being able to act, I think it would have been much tougher than what it is now.
