Janhvi Kapoor on her dream wedding

Janhvi Kapoor visited the Tirupati Balaji Temple in January 2024 and was accompanied by boyfriend Shikhar Pahariya.

When asked if she had a mental image of how her wedding will look, the actor had said, "I’ve had a very clear picture of that, right from the start! I want to be married in Tirupati; it will be a very intimate affair. I know what I will be wearing — a gold, zari Kanjeevaram saree; and I’ll have lots of mogras in my hair. My husband is going to be in a lungi. And we will all eat food on a banana leaf after the wedding."

'I don’t like big weddings'

Janhvi also opened up about when and how she came up with her wedding plans. She said, "I visit Tirupati a lot. And when taking such a big step in my life, I’d want to get married there, with the person that I love. Also, in the past, I attended the wedding of a family member there...and really enjoyed it. I don’t like big weddings — they’re fun to attend, but being the centre of attention at such a big event will give me too much anxiety!"
