Janhvi Kapoor, who is currently on a promotional spree for her upcoming film ‘Mr & Mrs Mahi' reached Chandigarh. Donning a traditional salwar suit, Janhvi dropped pictures of her look on Instagram. Additionally, she also visited Chandigarh's famous Pal Dhaba and enjoyed their lassi to beat the heat.

Janhvi looked bespoke in a lime green and pink Patiala salwar suit. She also braided her hair and tied a paranda at the end of it. She also visited a mall and greeted a sea of fans who had gathered to catch a glimpse of the actress. She wrote in the caption, "If Mrs Mahi was a Punjabi kudi Chandigarh."

Janhvi opened up about her character and told ANI, "My character's name is Mahima, short form Mahi. She loves her husband a lot and she is always a very innocent girl. She thinks that she is living her own life but in reality, she does what other people say. Whether it is about listening to her father or her husband. So, she hasn't learned to recognize, know, and use her own voice. And that is her journey in this film."

While talking about the film, Janhvi said, "It's a story about two people who get courage from each other to follow their dreams. And it's a very lovely story. It's not just about cricket. It's a family drama. It's a father and son story."

The film also stars Rajkummar Rao. They shared screen space in the 2021 film 'Roohi'. As the actors are coming together once again, Janhvi said, "Since I have joined this industry, I praise him in every interview as he has always been my favourite actor. I am really grateful that I got an opportunity to work with him twice. I am happy that I learned a lot from him and it helped me in becoming a better actor."

'Mr and Mrs Mahi' is directed by Sharan Sharma, who is known for his directorial debut Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl. Mr & Mrs Mahi marks the second collaboration between Janhvi and Sharan. The film is backed by Karan Johar's Dharma Productions. It will hit the theatres on May 31.
