Sridevi died in March this year by accidently drowning in the bathtub of the hotel she was staying in Dubai. In May, Janhvi gave her first ever interview to Vogue India, in which she talked about how life changed after Sridevi's death and what her mother had said after watching 25 minutes of footage of her debut film. Speaking to Dhadak producer Karan Johar, who interviewed Janhvi on behalf of the magazine, Janhvi said: "She was very technical about it. The first thing she told me was the things I needed to improve - she felt the mascara was smudged and it really bothered her. The second half has to be different, she told me, 'You can't wear anything on your face.' That's all she told me but she was happy."

This year Janhvi also collected Sridevi's National Award (given to her posthumously for her role in MOM) at a ceremony held in New Delhi. She wore a saree from Sridevi's personal collection.

Dhadak is directed by Shashank Khaitan and it also stars Ishaan Khatter.
