She revealed, in an interview, “It’s my first Telugu film. so a lot of my time is spent learning the dialogue as I don’t speak the language. My mum spoke to us in Hindi and English at home. But whenever we went to Chennai (Tamil Nadu), more often than not. she would speak in Tamil. I am more familiar with Tamil than I am with Telugu.”

Janhvi also mentioned that, in a way, doing the movie is like coming home. She added, “I feel ki main ghar aa gayi hoon. Everyone on set feels like my own. I don’t know if It’s because of my intense emotional attachment to Mum or if l am feeling attached to her by doing a film down south. It’s spiritual.”

Viewers are eager to witness Janhvi Kapoor's full transformation in the movie, in which she is reportedly playing a village girl. She portrays Jr. NTR's love interest in Devara. Her persona is designed to blend in with the rural setting. For this reason, Janhvi Kapoor plays the girl next door in the movie.
