In a heartwarming revelation, Bollywood sensation Janhvi Kapoor recently shared a delightful childhood memory that involved a dash of inspiration from the iconic sports drama ‘Chak De! India’ (2007). The Kapoor sisters, Janhvi and Khushi, decided to channel their inner athletes after watching the film, leading to a playful yet memorable encounter with ice hockey.
In a candid interview, Janhvi Kapoor recently revealed that the Shah Rukh Khan starrer left a lasting impact on her and Khushi. Inspired by the movie’s portrayal of hockey, the sisters decided to embark on their ice hockey journey.
Armed with hockey sticks, Janhvi and Khushi transformed their living space into an impromptu ice hockey ground. However, they improvised by using an ice cube, as the perfect substitute. Little did they know that their attempt at recreating the magic of ‘Chak De! India’ would lead to an unexpected adventure.
As Janhvi recalled the incident with a laugh, “There was water all over the floor and Khushi slipped and chipped her tooth. Of course, I got yelled at for it. I’d usually be scolded for not looking out enough for her. Even if I was in the other corner of the room.”
