Janhvi reacts to trolls
Taking to her Instagram Stories, Janhvi shared a short clip from the celebration, showing the moment she was asked to break the handi. In the video, someone in the crowd was first heard saying Bharat Mata Ki Jai, after which Janhvi repeated it. Clarifying the context, she wrote in the caption, “Just for context—full video lol. Unke bolne ke baad nahi bolti toh problem, aur bolo toh bhi video ko kaat ke meme material (laughing face emoticon). (If I didn’t say the slogan after him, it would be a problem, and now that I did, they cut the video to make meme material).”
The actress further asserted that she would proudly chant the slogan every day. She added, “Waise sirf Janmashtami ke din nahi, roz bolungi Bharat Mata ki Jaiiiiii! (folded hands, Indian flag emoticons). (Not just on Janmashtami, I will say Bharat Mata Ki Jai every single day).”
At the event, Janhvi also addressed the crowd in Marathi, wished them on Janmashtami, and urged everyone to watch Param Sundari in theatres from August 29.
