Koffee With Karan: Arjun Kapoor opens up on Sridevi's death, relationship with siblings Jahnvi, Khushi

Sridevi, the glittery-eyed diva of Bollywood died of cardiac arrest in Dubai on February 28. Her sudden death shocked the industry and sent shock waves to the entire country. Jahnvi Kapoor has opened up several times on her mother’s demise but it was Arjun Kapoor who supported and comforted the half-sisters, Khushi and Jahnvi.

Arjun, recently, appeared on the talk show Koffee With Karan with his half-sister, Janhvi Kapoor. Karan talked about the dynamics shared by the two as siblings, specially after the death of Jahnvi’s mother and Bollywood actress Sridevi, in February this year.

Karan began the conversation by talking about the dynamics shared by the two as siblings, specially after the death of her mother, actor Sridevi, in February this year. Karan mentioned how Arjun and his sister Anshula comforted their half-sisters Khushi and Janhvi after their mother’s death. Arjun said it was what his own late mother would have wanted him to do. “A moment changes everything, I have been through that moment, I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy. I and Anshula did everything out of pure honesty because we knew that we would have needed somebody at that time. We couldn’t have that but that doesn’t mean Janhvi and Khushi shouldn’t. My mother would have wanted that. If she was alive, the first thing she should’ve said is, ‘Go be there’. Don’t hold any grudges; life is too short,” he said.

However, he made sure his sister Anshula also thought the same about supporting Janhvi and Khushi. “It took me a lot of courage to ask Anshula, ‘I think this is the right thing, what do you feel?’ It was 2 am in the morning and when I told her, the first thing she asked was, “Where are the girls?,” he said. 

Arjun gave a very emotional account of why he chose to reach out to his father's daughters after their mother, Sridevi, died. Jahnvi said that the support from her half siblings, Arjun and Anshula had brought a sense of security and comfort she needed.

The host Karan Johar also made the actors spill beans about their respective love lives as well. While Jahnvi denied being romantically involved with co-actor Ishaan Khatter, Arjun reluctantly revealed that he is not single anymore!
