The Homebound actors Janhvi Kapoor and Vishal Jethwa came under fire when a widely shared video from a promotional interview at the 78th Cannes Film Festival showed them conversing with co-star Ishaan Khatter. An online discussion about professionalism was triggered by the event that occurred during the premiere of Neeraj Ghaywan's Homebound.
Ishaan Khatter, Janhvi Kapoor, and Vishal Jethwa were among the celebrities who recently walked the 78th Cannes Film Festival red carpet. The esteemed film festival hosted the premiere of their upcoming picture, Homebound. On social media, some of Janhvi Kapoor's looks went viral. Wearing a velvet bandhgala, Ishaan Khatter brought the regal swag on the red carpet. His most fashionable self was Vishal Jethwa. A video featuring Janhvi Kapoor, Vishal Jethwa, and Ishaan Khatter promoting their film has now gone viral. However, the actions of Vishal Jethwa and Janhvi Kapoor in the video have annoyed internet users.
Janhvi Kapoor in trouble?
Honestly when someone is giving an interview, the other person should have the courtesy to not keep whispering , itβs a bit disrespectful to the person speaking pic.twitter.com/nLHQRltmn1

In the video, Janhvi and Vishal laugh and mumble while Ishaan Khatter talks about Homebound, a drama about friendship and aspiration in rural North India. 'Rude' is how netizens have described this behaviour. One of the responses stated, "Honestly, when someone is giving an interview, the other person should have the courtesy to not keep whispering, itβs a bit disrespectful to the person speaking." There is a video in the tweet as well. On the video, a netizen wrote, "This is their khandani bimari. Sonam, her sister, also does the same."
In the Un Certain Regard category, Homebound, which was produced by Dharma Productions and directed by Neeraj Ghaywan, was given a standing ovation for nine minutes. Janhvi plays the role of Ambedkarite Sudha in the movie, which centres on two buddies (Ishaan and Vishal) who want to become police officers. Another person criticised her ambiguous remarks regarding BR Ambedkar's beliefs in a different interview, calling them "a whole lot of nothing."
