'Sounds rehearsed and practiced': Janhvi Kapoor's tamil speech at Devara event draws criticism
Janhvi Kapoor's fluent Tamil speech at the Devara event sparks debate. While some praise her, others claim it sounded rehearsed, drawing mixed reactions from fans. She paid tribute to her mother, Sridevi, and expressed her gratitude to the audience.
Janhvi Kapoor stole the spotlight at the Devara event, but this time it wasn't her glamourous appearance that is making waves. The actress surprised everyone by speaking in fluent Tamil; so fluent that some fans were left wondering if it was a little too perfect. While some of them are praising her and comparing her to her mother Sridevi, several others think this was done to attract attention and sounded "rehearsed and practiced."

While some people praised her and compared her to mom Sridevi, several others thought it sounded rehearsed and there was no big deal about it as she was promoting her movie. "it seems rehearsed," one of the users wrote. "Sounds rehearsed and practiced," said another user. "She doesn't sound confident in Tamil so speaking very softly. The moment she switches to English, confidence is back and her speech is back to being more assertive," said another user.
Another fan remembered how she couldn't speak in Hindi earlier and wrote, "Bhai usko Hindi theek se aati nahi thi (remember her old video with Sridevi?) toh koi toh dusri language aati hogi na. You guys praise people for the randomest things."
Jhanvi Kapoor can't even speak Hindi for someone who grew up in India and this basic will get a free entitled debut cuz she's a starkid. Ugh pic.twitter.com/SGeBy1Q5jy
