Date: 31-mar-2025 | By: Nuztrend Team
Bollywood actor Janhvi Kapoor walked the ramp as the showstopper for fashion designer Rahul Mishra during Lakme Fashion Week 2025. Clad in a black Bandhani bodycon dress under a long black coat, Janhvi made a bold, dramatic entrance. The look, part of Mishra’s new collection "AFEW," was completed with pointed heels and confident posing as she removed her coat mid-ramp.
Mixed Reactions Flood Social Media
While the event drew glamor and glitz, the internet's response was divided. A video of her walk shared by Instagram page Diet Sabya drew sharp criticism, with users questioning the preference for celebrities over seasoned runway models.
- "Where are the real models?" asked one user, calling the trend disappointing.
- “Bouncing around a runway is a new thing for the nepos?” another comment jabbed, referencing Bollywood's nepotism debate.
- “Feels like some teen trying to walk in heels,” read another post criticizing her confidence and rhythm.
Supporters Applaud Her Confidence
Despite the criticism, Janhvi had her share of supporters. Fans praised her aura and delivery, describing her as a “movie star” with the charisma of 2000s icons. “She’s giving drama and heroine energy — we need more of this,” one user wrote. Another chimed in: “Anybody who says she didn’t slay is a fashion victim and should be dismissed.”
What’s Next for Janhvi Kapoor?
Janhvi Kapoor is currently riding a career upswing. She’s set to appear alongside Ram Charan in the film Peddi, directed by Buchi Babu Sana and featuring a stellar cast including Shiva Raj Kumar and Divyenndu. The film’s music is by Oscar-winning composer AR Rahman.
