Janhvi Kapoor Says She Is So Aware Of Her Privilege That She Feels Guilty

Janhvi Kapoor is playing the lead role in Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl, which is based on the life of Indian Air Force’s first female combat pilot and the actress in a recent interview not only spoke about the lessons that she learnt from Gunjan’s life but also about her own privileged life.

While talking about her takeaway from the film, Janhvi said, “It all comes down to the effort and the hard work you put in towards your work. Her outlook was very simple, if you keep working hard, then one will get where one has to get.”

Talking about being a star kid and getting an easy way into Bollywood, Kapoor said, “I am so aware of my privilege. I often felt guilty about it. But the best I can do is to earn my place by working even harder.”

Directed by Sharan Sharma, Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl, also stars Pankaj Tripathi and Angad Bedi in pivotal roles. The film will release on Netflix.
