Kapoor made her acting debut in 2018 with the Shashank Khaitan-directed romance Dhadak , co-starring Ishaan Khatter and produced under Karan Johar's studio Dharma Productions. [10] A Hindi-language remake of the 2016 Marathi film Sairat , it featured her as a young upper-class girl whose life turns tragic after she elopes with a lower-class boy (played by Khatter). [11] The film received predominantly negative reviews, [12] but with a worldwide collection of 1.1 billion, it proved to be a commercial success. [13] [14] Writing for News18 , Rajeev Masand criticised the film for removing caste-based references and deemed it inferior to the original, but felt Kapoor had "a fragility that makes her instantly endearing, and a soulful quality that makes it hard to take your eyes off her on screen". [15] Conversely, Anna M. M. Vetticad of Firstpost thought that she "lacks personality and delivers a colourless performance". [16] She won the Zee Cine Award for Best Female Debut. [17] [18]

Kapoor's next screen appearance came in 2020 when she starred in Zoya Akhtar's segment in the Netflix horror anthology film Ghost Stories . [19] Shubhra Gupta of The Indian Express disliked the segments but added that the "only real surprise comes from Janhvi Kapoor in a solid, real act". [20] She then took on the title role of aviator Gunjan Saxena in the biopic Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl , which due to the COVID-19 pandemic could not be released theatrically and instead streamed on Netflix. [21] In preparation, she spent time with Saxena, underwent physical training, and learned the body language of an air force officer. [22] Saibal Chatterjee of NDTV described Kapoor's performance as "passably steady" while Rahul Desai of Film Companion was more appreciative of her "deceptively private performance" which he considered to be "pitch-perfect". [23] [24] She received a nomination for the Filmfare Award for Best Actress. [25]

In 2021, Kapoor played a dual role opposite Rajkummar Rao in the comedy horror film Roohi . [26] The film was theatrically released after several delays due to the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. [27] The film and Kapoor's performance were panned by critics, [28] [29] and it performed poorly at the box-office. [30] The following year, Kapoor starred in Good Luck Jerry , a remake of the 2018 Tamil film Kolamaavu Kokila , produced by Aanand L. Rai. [31] It was released on the streaming platform Disney+ Hotstar. [32] In her next film, Mili , a remake of the Malayalam film Helen, she played a young woman trapped in a freezer, which was played by Anna Ben in the original. [33] Anupama Chopra was appreciative of the "sweetness and sincerity" she brought to the part but considered it much less accomplished than Ben's performance. [34] It emerged as a box-office bomb. [35] She received another Best Actress nomination at Filmfare. [36]

Career struggles (2023–present)

Kapoor starred opposite Varun Dhawan in Nitesh Tiwari's Bawaal (2023), a romantic drama about a feuding couple who learn about World War II as they travel across Europe. It was released digitally on Amazon Prime Video. [37] The film received backlash for Holocaust trivialization. [38] Writing for The New York Times , Beatrice Loayza criticised the lack of chemistry between the lead pair and dismissed Kapoor as "devoid of charisma". [39] Leaf Arbuthnot of The Guardian also panned the film and their chemistry but was appreciative of her "still, mature performance". [40]

In 2024, Kapoor had three film releases. She reunited with Rajkummar Rao for the sports drama Mr. & Mrs. Mahi , about a man who vicariously fulfils his dreams of becoming a professional cricketer through his wife. [41] Whilst filming cricketing sequences, Kapoor twice dislocated her shoulder. [42] Shilajit Mishra of The Hindu thought that she had yet to achieve "requisite ease in performance" despite appearing in nine films. [43] She followed this with the portrayal of a young Indian Foreign Service officer accused of dissent against the government in the political thriller Ulajh . [44] Kapoor admitted to feeling "obsessive" about the film due to her substantial involvement in the creative process. [45] In a mixed review of the film, The Quint 's Pratikshya Mishra was appreciative of Kapoor's handling of "emotionally demanding scenes". [46] Similar to her previous theatrical releases, both Mr. & Mrs. Mahi and Ulajh were commercially unsuccessful. [47] [48] Kapoor made her debut in Telugu cinema by play a brief role opposite N. T. Rama Rao Jr in the Telugu action film Devara: Part 1 from filmmaker Koratala Siva. [49] [50] Rediff.com's Sukanya Verma dismissed her role in a rare androcentric project, writing that she "shows up only post interval to pout and preen around NTR's machismo". [51] With a gross of over 5 billion (US$60 million), Devara: Part 1 emerged as Kapoor's first commercial success since Dhadak as well as the highest-grossing of her career. [52]

Kapoor will continue her collaborations with Dharma Productions in the romantic comedy Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari, opposite Dhawan, and is also set to star opposite Ram Charan in the tentatively titled Telugu film RC16. [53] [54] She will also star opposite Sidharth Malhotra in the romance Param Sundari. [55]
