MUMBAI: Dhadak actress Janhvi Kapoor recently shared her views that she believes that having someone in your life who doesn't encourage and support an individual to follow their dreams is a big red flag and shared that there was a time in which she felt she deserved to be surrounded by those who questioned and doubted her.

Talking to the media during the press conference for her upcoming movie "Mr. & Mrs. Mahi"  about the most outgoing topics these days that are red flags in relationships, Janhvi said, "I definitely think when you have anyone in your life that doesn't encourage you to follow your dreams that is a red flag.”

She further said, "I found in my personal life that I am surrounded by people who believe in me and help me believe in myself and I have seen a change in my personality. Once I made the shift with the kind of people I surround myself with.”

Daughter of famous producer Boney Kapoor and late actress Sridevi, mentioned how she felt like she deserved to be around people who "didn't think" much of her.

She shared the reason, "I remember there was a phase where I felt like I deserve to be surrounded by people who constantly questioned me, doubted me and didn't think very much of me because in my head I was like 'no, they are keeping me grounded, they are giving me a reality check' because I am so scared of becoming delusional."

Although she asserts it is always positive to have people who can push you to achieve your dreams.

"Once around the people, who think the best of you, who say no 'you can do it', you have no idea what you are capable of….That forces you to look at yourself in a better light," she said.

The actress further said, "Women, we aren't encouraged enough to be ambitious."

She concluded by saying "We are expected to be sacrificial, maternal and nurturing figures all the time which is very important for me too and I aspire for that but ambition is equally important for me. So, I hope we get to a point where a woman isn't judged for her ambition or her choice to just nurture.”

The actress said that “Mr & Mrs. Mahi” is not only about cricket but it is more than that which is set to be released on May 31.

She said, "This film is about dreams…The film is about those people who do not get that support… It is also about those people, who support their partners, friends and near ones to fulfil their dreams. This film is also about a couple, who get married in an arranged marriage setup, discover each other and fall in love. It is also about a father-son relationship. No matter how old you get, that validation is always important.”
