Janhvi Kapoor has received a lot of love for playing women-centric roles in movies like Gunjan Saxena, Mili, and Good Luck Jerry.
Now, Janhvi Kapoor is all set to step into the shoes of an IAS officer for her upcoming movie Ulajh.
Ulajh is said to be a patriotic thriller and Janhvi has shared her excitement on being a part of the film. As per reports, while talking about the film, Janhvi says, “When I was approached with the script of Ulajh, it instantly attracted me because as an actor, I am constantly looking for scripts that make me break out of my comfort zone and portraying a character based in the celebrated world of the Indian Foreign Services was just that. Just as the name of the film suggests, my character and the story, have so many layers, emotions, and parameters, which are challenging and exciting at the same time. I am thrilled for the audience to see me in this new role envisioned by Sudhanshu, who has such a fresh approach towards dealing with this genre. I am also looking forward to work with such talented co-actors and a development studio like Junglee Pictures for the first time.”
“In their typical fashion, Junglee Pictures has picked yet another original, bold, and daring film to bring to audiences and I’m so thrilled they’ve entrusted me with the task of helming it. In Janhvi Kapoor, the film has found its beating heart and it’s going to be a treat for audiences to watch her spar with thespians like Rajesh Tailang and Sachin Khedekar, maverick actors like Gulshan Devaiah, Roshan Matthews and Meiyang Chang. We have a rollercoaster of a ride planned for our audience and I can’t wait to start rolling cameras on Ulajh,” Director Sudhanshu Saria said.
It is believed that Ulajh follows the journey of a young IFS officer, belonging to a prominent family of patriots, who gets embroiled in a dangerous personal conspiracy while far from her home turf, at a career-defining post.
