Janhvi Kapoor recalls making Pankaj Tripathi agree for Gunjan Saxena: He was on my wish list

Janhvi Kapoor is all set for her upcoming film 'Mr and Mrs Mahi' which will hit the big screens next week. Going down the line, the actress has been a part of several projects ever since she debuted with 'Dhadak' back in 2018.

However, her performance in 'Gunjan Saxena,’ undoubtedly remains one of the finest in her career. But did you know that the actress had to convince the actor Pankaj Tripathi, who portrays her father in the film, to take upon the role?
  
In a recent interview, the actress  shared that she has been a big fan of the actor and his work and wanted to work with him.

She said, "I wanted to work with Pankaj Tripathi Sir. He was on my wishlist. People present at the sets of Gunjan Saxena, know that I used to behave like a crazy girl because I was a big fan of him and even today. I had a mannat to make him say yes to the film."

Janhvi added, " I think for 10 or 12 days I became a vegetarian so that he says yes."

Meanwhile, her upcoming film 'Mr and Mrs Mahi' is set to release on May 31 and will also star Rajkummar Rao in the lead.
