After winning hearts with her films Param Sundari and Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari last year, Janhvi Kapoor recently took a well-deserved break. The actress was spotted returning to Mumbai last night,
reportedly after a New Year vacation with her beau, Shikhar Pahariya. In a video that surfaced on social media, Janhvi was seen exiting the airport and heading straight to her car. Unlike her usual appearances, she skipped posing for the paparazzi and swiftly made her way inside the vehicle.
Keeping it effortless on her return, Janhvi Kapoor opted for a casual airport look. She was dressed in a white T-shirt paired with denim and completed the outfit with her glasses. Her travel outfit was a mix of comfort and style. The actress maintained a low-key presence as she wrapped up her vacation on a quiet note.
