Hyderabad:As she prepares for the release of her upcoming Hindi film Ulajh, Janhvi Kapoor is also gearing up to make a significant impact in her Telugu debut. In the highly anticipated film Devara: Part 1, she stars as Thangam alongside Jr NTR, who plays the lead role.

During Ulajh promotions, Janhvi shared her thoughts on her role in Devara and her experience working with Jr NTR and director Koratala Siva. She expressed her admiration for the way the team approaches filmmaking, noting, "I love how they work over there, I love how they treat a movie like a work of art…a work of cinema. They really give it that respect, scale, and magnitude. They have so much conviction in their storytelling."

Janhvi also praised Jr NTR’s remarkable abilities, saying, "Jr NTR sir walks into a frame and it becomes alive. His energy is contagious and I recently shot for a song with him; the speed at which he picks steps is unheard of. I’m here learning the same for 10 days, and he just learns it all in a second. Even in his takes, he’s just alive on camera."

Reflecting on her role, earlier Janhvi described it as highly entertaining and expressed her delight at working on the sets, where the passion and dedication of everyone involved left a lasting impression. She feels fortunate to have been given this opportunity.
