She’s got a film premiere at Cannes and a major wellness brand under her belt, Janhvi Kapoor is rewriting her star chapter.
Janhvi Kapoor is set to walk the Cannes 2025 red carpet for her film Homebound, reuniting with co-star Ishaan Khatter in what fans are calling a nostalgic reunion. Directed by a breakout indie filmmaker, Homebound is already being positioned as Janhvi’s most emotionally complex role to date. But her big-screen high is also matched by her off-screen brand success. She was recently announced as the face of Sugar Free, representing a new line of “guilt-free indulgence” — a natural fit given her fitness-focused image and relatable persona. Janhvi’s brand partnerships have elevated her from a Bollywood heiress to a multi-platform influencer.
