The third episode of the 9th season of 'Koffee with Karan', a show that brings out the secrets of Bollywood stars, this time brought a series of hot news about Janhvi Kapoor's love life to the audience. Janhvi, who joined the show with Varun Dhawan at Karan Johar's invitation, not only officially confirmed that she is in a romantic relationship with Shikhar Pahariya but also hinted at her future marriage for the first time.
Answering Karan Johar's direct question about marriage, Janhvi said that she plans to get married in another two or three years. Although she was reluctant to reveal too much about her personal life, she stated that there is no need to be unnecessarily secretive about romantic relationships, and it is a problem for her why people hesitate to talk openly about them.
The bond between Janhvi and Shikhar is deeper than a mere love story. Janhvi reminisced about the support Shikhar gave her during the mournful period following the demise of her mother, the famous actress Sridevi. At that time, they were not lovers. However, when Janhvi needed his support, Shikhar took a semester off from his college education, came to Mumbai, stayed at a friend's house, and stood by her. Janhvi described him as "a very trustworthy, stable person." Varun Dhawan also stated that he is closer to Shikhar than to Janhvi.
She explained how she and Shikhar supported each other and successfully faced situations even when their romantic relationships with other people broke down. Varun Dhawan, who is married and recently became a father, said that he is now happy in his family life and therefore has no issues with past relationships. Recalling that Alia Bhatt spoke about having a child at 19, Varun further added that he never thought Alia would be the first among them to become a mother, nor did he expect Siddharth Malhotra to be the last to become a father.
It was also revealed on the show that the way to win Janhvi's heart is through her pet dogs. She herself mentioned that she has 19 pet dogs. Additionally, advising Shikhar's brother, Veer Pahariya, on love, she said, "Never take her to a concert," recalling the incident at A.P. Dhillon's concert last year, which led to the breakup of his relationship with Tara Sutaria.
The period when Karan Johar had stopped talking to Janhvi and Varun due to a clash in movie release dates was also discussed. The conflict stemmed from Varun's film and Karan's film being scheduled for release on the same day. Janhvi revealed that she gained six kilograms during that time, and the conflict was resolved through Varun's intervention.
Additionally, Janhvi commented on the controversial situation that arose regarding her role in the film 'Peddi', honestly admitting that she regretted the extreme sexual objectification of women in it and that she could have been more attentive to it. Stating that she will always carry that shame, she also declared that she should have used her privileges to raise her voice against it.
The show concluded with another revelation: Varun Dhawan's disclosure that Janhvi's brother, Arjun Kapoor, is in a romantic relationship with a woman named 'Tarini', who is involved in the real estate sector. Although Arjun tried to deny it, Varun firmly stated it. Nevertheless, despite the ups and downs and experiences in her personal life, this discussion clearly confirmed that Janhvi Kapoor's stable love with Shikhar Pahariya will culminate in marriage in the next few years.
