Janhvi Kapoor who is soon going to be seen in Mr and Mrs Mahi alongside Rajkummar Rao, where she plays the character of a cricketer has been garnering a lot of attention for her method of dressing to promote her movie. In almost all her outfits, Janhvi has managed to include an element of cricket. And recently in an interview, she revealed that although the outfits were custom-made for her, they are all rented.
Janhvi Kapoor Reveals Wearing Rented Outfit For Promoting Mr. And Mrs. Mahi
Janhvi Kapoor shared on Mashable India’s The Bombay Journey that most of the things she wears are rented. She also honestly stated that her ensemble was no different. “Mostly when my stylists call for clothes they’re rented. The shoes and rings are mine but the necklace and bracelets don’t belong to me either. Even the shirt is not mine Bhaade ke hain!” Janhvi said. She went on to say that after events, she had to send back these outfits as well as accessories despite being custom made for her. “Yes, these have been customized just for me, but I don’t own any of them because they’ve all been rented out wearing”. Does that qualify as being sustainable?” she wondered aloud. Ayushmaan Khurrana recently on Mashable India’s Show Mashable Mehfil revealed that he too wears rented clothes and doesn’t purchase new outfits for events.
The actress also stated that repeating her clothes was fine with her. She joked about having a night suit with an embossed face and that she could never give up her love for it. Interestingly enough, Sara Ali Khan who is also a friend of Janhvi has spoken publicly about renting clothes and repeating outfits as well.
More Actors Who Wear Rented Clothes
Other than Janhvi Kapoor, Sara Ali Khan, and Ayushmaan Khurrana, Janhvi’s cousin and actor Sonam Kapoor to had revealed wearing clothes that were rented on an episode of Koffee with Karan. Adding to the list of actors who follow sustainable fashion is none other than veteran actor Zeenat Aman who had revealed on Instagram how she often wears outfits lent by her designer friends.
Janhvi Kapoor’s upcoming movie Mr. & Mrs. Mahi will be released on 31st May 2024.
