After the untimely passing of their mother, the legendary actor Sridevi, Janhvi Kapoor and Khushi Kapoor found solace in their step-siblings, Arjun Kapoor and Anshula Kapoor. Despite the difficult phase they went through, the Kapoor sisters have often spoken openly about the unwavering support they received from Arjun and Anshula. In a recent appearance on Koffee With Karan 8, they once again shared insights into how their step-siblings stood by them during the toughest time in their lives.
Discussing their bond with Arjun and Anshula, Khushi Kapoor told Karan Johar, “It feels nice to have more people that I can call and ask stupid questions all the time. Besides dad and Janhvi, they helped me hold everything together. They centre me in a certain way. I go to Anshula for certain thing and I go to Arjun bhaiya for certain things.” Janhvi Kapoor quickly added to Khushi’s statement saying, “More people to have our back which is always nice.”
Boney Kapoor was previously married to Mona Shouri from 1983 to 1996, and the couple had two children, Arjun Kapoor and Anshula Kapoor. Boney married Sridevi in 1996 while still being married to Mona. The couple welcomed their first daughter, Janhvi, in 1997, and Khushi in 2000. Sridevi tragically passed away in her hotel room in Dubai on February 24, 2018, with the cause of death reported as ‘accidental drowning.’
Reflecting on his relationship with Sridevi in an earlier interview with The New Indian Express, Boney Kapoor fondly shared, “She was my strength, she was my lifeline, and she remains in my thoughts all the time. It is unfortunate that she had to go so soon, when I needed her the most, when I wanted her to see the success of her daughters. I wanted her to see how I’ve done regional films, because it was her idea that I should do regional films. I’m trying to fulfil all her dreams, and I’ll continue to do so.”
