Janhvi Kapoor Defends Against Buffalo-Plasty Rumor
Janhvi Kapoor has recently found herself at the center of an unusual rumor claiming she underwent a 'buffalo-plasty' procedure to enhance her lips. The actress addressed this bizarre allegation during her appearance on the talk show "Two Much With Kajol and Twinkle," hosted by Twinkle Khanna and Kajol. In this episode, Janhvi also discussed broader issues surrounding body image that social media has created for the younger generation.
During the conversation, Janhvi reflected on her own experiences growing up in the era of social media. She described herself as a young, impressionable girl who felt the pressure to conform to societal beauty standards fueled by online platforms. "I don’t want to perpetuate in young girls this idea of perfection," she stated, highlighting her belief in self-acceptance. Janhvi strongly advocates for the idea of "you do you," encouraging individuals to pursue what makes them happy.
The actress went on to recount how she encountered a video from a self-proclaimed doctor analyzing her facial features and speculating about surgeries she might have had. "They said something like buffaloplasty," Janhvi recalled. She emphasized that she has been cautious and thoughtful about any cosmetic procedures she has considered, with guidance from her mother. Janhvi's transparency stems from a desire to protect young girls from potentially harmful decisions based on misleading information.
She expressed her concern that if a young girl sees such a video and thinks, "I also want this procedure," and something goes wrong, it could have disastrous consequences. "That would be the worst thing ever," she warned. By sharing her own perspective, Janhvi hopes to foster a culture of openness about cosmetic enhancements, encouraging discussions that prioritize safety and well-being over unrealistic standards.
Most recently, Janhvi was seen in the romantic comedy "Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari," alongside actors Varun Dhawan, Sanya Malhotra, and Rohit Saraf. Although the film received mixed reviews from critics, it performed well at the box office, grossing over ₹100 crore worldwide. Janhvi's commitment to authenticity and body positivity resonates with many, making her a relatable figure for fans navigating the complexities of social media and beauty.
