Janhvi Kapoor's appearances at the Cannes Film Festival 2025 have been widely circulated online, and a specific behind-the-scenes video has garnered significant attention. In this video, the actress, while preparing for her glamorous looks at the prestigious event, was seen in a playful mood, enjoying quick bites of food while getting her makeup done.

During this moment, she confidently declared, "I look mesmerising. I look breathtaking. I cannot wait to eat. They are going to say it is plastic, but who cares?" This remark served as a clear dig at online trolls who often refer to her as "plastic."Previously addressed trolling as a "Privileged Problem"This isn't the first time Janhvi Kapoor has addressed online criticism. In a previous conversation on Dharma Production's YouTube channel with Karan Johar, the actress admitted that she often thinks about trolls and that such negativity has been a part of her life for as long as she can remember.

Despite acknowledging that obsessing over it is unhealthy, she has tried not to let it deeply affect her. She candidly stated, "In my head, it is always like other people have it much worse.

And it seems kind of phoney for me to sit here and be like, 'I got trolled. It's hard.' It does not seem like a real enough problem because it is not a relatable enough problem for the common man, and it is a privileged problem."Khushi Kapoor's openness about cosmetic proceduresJanhvi's sister, Khushi Kapoor, has also faced criticism regarding cosmetic procedures.

During the promotions for her film Loveyapa, Khushi sat down for a candid interview with Curly Tales where she openly confessed to having undergone a nose job and fillers. She expressed her vocalness about it, stating she doesn't believe there's anything wrong with such procedures. Khushi remarked, "I don't think it's such a big deal.

I feel like this term is 'plastic plastic'. People think it's the biggest insult you can give someone."Janhvi Kapoor's fashion triumph at Cannes 2025
