Boney Kapoor and Sridevi’s eldest daughter, Jhanvi Kapoor is gearing up for her acting debut. Following in her mother’s footsteps, Jhanvi has apparently made up her mind to pursue acting and is currently even attending acting school in the US.

Meanwhile, even before she preps for a debut, offers have started coming Jhanvi’s way. The biggest among those who’ve approached her has been Telugu superstar Mahesh Babu, who had offered Jhanvi the lead role in his next venture with ace director, A R Murugadoss.

However, as it turns out, Jhanvi won’t be taking up the offer. Says a source close to the project, “Sridevi and Boney were interested. After all Sridevi has been closely associated with the Telugu film industry. However, Karan Johar, who is launching Jhanvi in the industry advised them against the project.”

This has deepened worries for Mahesh Babu, whose film is facing a heroine crisis ever since Parineeti Chopra walked out of the movie. Actress Rakul Preet Singh is doing the project now.
