Janhvi Kapoor attempts stand-up comedy and urges focus on health tips.
Bollywood actor Janhvi Kapoor was recently seen experimenting with a new genre as she gave stand-up comedy a try. In a brief video posted on social media platform Reddit, the ‘Gunjan Saxena’ star touched upon meaningful health advice for her young female followers.
Switching gears from the usual makeup and beauty endorsements prevalent online, Janhvi highlighted the need to spread awareness about sexually transmitted infections through her act. She advised focusing on tips from credible organizations like the Red Cross instead of frivolous relationship tips.
The actress urged refraining from suggestive casual intimacy without protecting oneself first. She informed me about HPV, or human papillomavirus, which can be transmitted through skin-to-skin contact beyond handshakes or hugs during physical intimacy.
While Janhvi sought to utilize her influence to educate on preventive healthcare, some viewers felt her delivery lacked punch. A section opined that the written content did not appear naturally funny when spoken.
Others commended her effort in broaching important medical issues rarely addressed openly. It remains to be seen if she will refine her comedy skills over time.
The celluloid celebrity also participated in a question-and-answer session on the social platform, though it did not go as intended. Janhvi is promoting her film Mr and Mrs Mahi, co-starring Rajkumar Rao, which opened to positive reviews.
