While Janhvi has not acted in a direct Malayalam film so far, she already shares a connection with Malayalam cinema. Her 2022 film Mili was the Hindi remake of the acclaimed Malayalam thriller Helen. More recently, she portrayed a character with strong Malayali roots in Param Sundari, which required her to engage with the language and culture more closely.

Meanwhile, Telugu audiences have warmly welcomed Janhvi’s transition into regional cinema. After making her Telugu debut with Devara, the actress is now set to headline Peddi. Directed by Buchi Babu Sana, the film stars Ram Charan in the lead role and follows the journey of a villager who unites people through sports. The film also features Shiva Rajkumar, Jagapathi Babu, Divyendu Sharma, Ravi Kishan, and Boman Irani in key roles.

On the work front, Janhvi Kapoor will next be seen in Peddi, where she plays Achiyamma opposite Ram Charan. The sports action drama is scheduled to release in theatres on June 4. She also has Param Sundari in her lineup as she continues to expand her presence across Hindi and South Indian cinema.
