A recent photograph of Janhvi Kapoor wearing a nightsuit featuring a playful reference to Shikhar Pahariya has taken social media by storm, reigniting public curiosity about their relationship. The image, shared by the Instagram page Bollywood Interactions, shows the actress in a nightsuit with the text: “If lost, please return to Shikhar Pahariya.” The post quickly went viral, drawing a mix of amused and critical reactions from fans.
Relationship Timeline: From Dating to Reconciliation Rumours
Janhvi Kapoor and Shikhar Pahariya have been linked romantically for several years. According to reports, the couple first started dating in 2016 but parted ways after Janhvi made her Bollywood debut with “Dhadak” in 2018. Speculation about their reconciliation resurfaced in 2023 when they were spotted together on multiple occasions. Since then, the duo has been seen attending events, visiting temples, and spending time together, fueling constant media and fan interest.
Janhvi has also hinted at her bond with Shikhar in public conversations, affectionately referring to him as “Shikhu.” Rumours of an impending marriage circulated earlier this year, but Janhvi’s father, producer Boney Kapoor, denied the speculation.
Work Front: Recent Projects and Upcoming Films
On the professional front, Janhvi Kapoor was recently seen in the film “Peddi.” The movie sparked debate after some viewers felt her character was hypersexualised. Director Buchi Babu Sana later apologised and reportedly made changes to the film in response to the criticism.
Looking ahead, Janhvi has “Lag Jaa Gale” in the pipeline, co-starring Tiger Shroff and Lakshya, scheduled for release in May next year. She is also reportedly set to appear in “Raaka.”
