Janhvi has next signed a crime comedy for Aanand L Rai’s banner, Colour Yellow Productions. The film will be the remake of Nayanthara’s 2018 hit, Kolamavu Kokila directed by Nelson Dilipkumar. Stepping into the shoes of the lady South superstar, Janhvi will play the role of a young girl who gets involved in a drug racket to earn quick money. Circumstances eventually bring her entire family into the drug smuggling business. What follows next is a series of unwarranted twists and turns that makes the film an interesting thriller. The yet-untitled film will be Janhvi’s immediate next post the global pandemic and will go on floors in February 2021. 
Siddharth Sengupta who has previously worked as an AD in films like Oye Lucky! Lucky Oye! (2008), Agneepath (2012), and Heartless (2014) will direct the film. While Siddharth has earlier co-directed a mini-series called The Great Escape with the other two directors in 2016, this Janhvi Kapoor film will be his full-fledged directorial debut. Laal Rang, LoveShhuda, and Baaraat Company fame Pankaj Matta has adapted the screenplay to suit the sensibilities of the Hindi film audiences. Meanwhile, we have also heard that Janhvi Kapoor’s Bombay Girl has been shelved and remake of the the Malayalam film Helen is still not going ahead.
