What Janhvi said

Janhvi Kapoor says she had a fear of losing her parents Sridevi and Boney Kapoor in her childhood

“It's so funny that I always had a paranoia of losing my parents, even at that time (childhood). Every time they'd go late at night for an event or travel for more than a day without me… Small things like they're shopping at duty-free (stores at the airport) and I'm left with the nanny, I was always like, ‘I don’t know if they're going to make the flight, I don't know if they're going to come back home. Sometimes, I'd go into their room and check if they're there. It's so weird. There was this weird paranoia,” Janhvi said.

When asked if she still feels that way, Janhvi added, “I don't know. Maybe. I don't think I'm anxiously attached to anyone right now. But yeah, there was a very significant paranoia. Which is ironic." Janhvi also talked about how people don't discuss taking care of their ageing parents enough. She said that at this stage of her life, she feels like an adult and sees her father as a kid. She said she's borderline obsessed with him.
