Janhvi Kapoor and her Cannes Film Festival debut are in full swing. The young actress, who features in the upcoming film Homebound, is in awe about attending the prestigious event for the first time.

Janhvi Kapoor Ahead Of Cannes Debut
On May 19, Janhvi posted an Instagram story that soon got noticed, a plate of pancakes on which the words “Cannes Ready? T-1 day” were beautifully written with chocolate sauce. The sweet tweet, literally so, served up a mouthful of her excitement as she prepares for one of the world’s most glamorous events in cinema. Janhvi will attend Cannes as a result of the screening of his film Homebound, which is produced by Neeraj Ghaywan. The director has seen action at the fest circuit abroad before; ten years ago, he made headlines with Masaan at Cannes. Homebound, to be screened in the Un Certain Regard category on May 21, is an important film for Indian cinema this year.
The project has a powerful lineup of productions. Helmed by Karan Johar, Adar Poonawalla, Apoorva Mehta, and Somen Mishra, the film is also jointly produced by Marijke deSouza and Melita Toscan Du Plantier. To top it all, master filmmaker Martin Scorsese is supporting the project as its executive producer, a decision which has left the entire team, including Janhvi, highly humbled. Janhvi had shown her appreciation towards Scorsese earlier on Instagram, referring to his involvement as a dream come true. She said that having him involved in Homebound gave additional meaning and purpose to the experience.
Janhvi is accompanied by her co-actors Ishaan Khatter, Vishal Jethwa, and the rest of the team, who’ve also been giving followers an insight into their journey through their social media handles. While Homebound makes waves, Janhvi is not slowing down yet. She’s already committed to big projects back home like Param Sundari with Sidharth Malhotra and the highly anticipated rom-com Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari, where she teams up with Varun Dhawan again.
As the Cannes red carpet prepares to welcome Janhvi for the first time, she joins the long list of Indian celebrities making their mark at the 78th edition, including Aditi Rao Hydari, Nitanshi Goel, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.
