Deepak Dobriyal and Janhvi Kapoor

After her Bollywood debut Dhadak (2018), which was followed by the anthology Ghost Stories (2020) and Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl (2020), Janhvi Kapoor had wrapped up the horror-comedy Roohi Afzana and was slated to begin work on Dostana 2. As there is no word about when the film will roll, she has moved on to Good Luck Jerry. On Monday, the film went on the floors in Punjab. Kapoor's co-star in Aanand L Rai's production is Deepak Dobriyal, who featured in Rai's Tanu Weds Manu franchise. Good Luck Jerry, directed by Sidharth Sengupta, also features Meeta Vashishth, Neeraj Sood and Sushant Singh.

Speaking of Roohi Afzana, the story revolves around a ghost who puts all the bridegrooms in a town to sleep with his singing so that it can possess their brides. Directed by Dinesh Vijan, this is the second collaboration with Rajkummar, after the blockbuster success of Stree.

Janhvi Kapoor, in a media interaction, shared, "I auditioned for films within Dharma also. I actually auditioned for a film in Dharma only that I didn't end up getting. No, the director will tell me and then Karan will also tell me, 'For this reason…', 'You are looking too young' or whatever."

"Yeah, it hurt my father, but he had seen the film much before and his belief in my performance and the film was so strong that he was not so affected by the social media situation. That gave me a lot of strength as well," concluded the actress.
