Janhvi Kapoor's Cousin, Shanaya Kapoor Will Be an Assistant Director in Her Biopic on IAF Pilot, Gunjan Saxena
Shanaya Kapoor will foray into Bollywood as an assistant director in Janhvi Kapoor's next.
Seems like the Kapoor girls are ready to take Bollywood by storm! After Janhvi Kapoor's debut in Dhadak last year, her cousin sister, Shanaya Kapoor is all set to foray into the glamour world. However, rather than directly jumping into the sea, she preferred taking swimming classes in a river instead. We mean rather than marking her debut with a movie in 2020, she decided to learn the nuances of filmmaking beforehand. The star kid is currently in Lucknow working as an assistant director and we have some deets about the same project. Turn out the project she's working on is Janhvi's next biopic.

A source close to the project in its interaction with Mumbai Mirror revealed details of Shanaya's debut as an assistant director. “The team will be shooting in Lucknow for the next two weeks before moving to other locations. While Shanaya has made up her mind about being an actress, her parents wanted her to experience life behind the scenes first. She had been making regular rounds of Karan Johar’s Andheri office to work on the project," the source said.

Shanaya will mark her debut in B-town as an actress in 2020 and we wonder if she'll pick Karan Johar as her mentor like Ananya Panday and Janhvi herself. Meanwhile, the biopic is on IAF Pilot, Gunjan Saxena. She was honoured with the Shaurya Chakra, for evacuating soldiers injured in the 1999 Kargil War. The project definitely sounds interesting and we can't wait to learn what fun these sisters had while working on it simultaneously.
