Janhvi Kapoor on her Ghost Stories experience
Reports say that Ghost Stories is an anthology of four “mind-bending stories” from the horror genre. The directors have earlier collaborated for Bombay Talkies and Netflix’s Lust Stories. Janhvi Kapoor, who will play the role of an unusual character in her cinema journey, has shared her experience of filming for Ghost Stories. The official Netflix handle on social media recently shared a few things about Janhvi Kapoor's experience. Janhvi said that apart from Ghost Stories being a classic ghost story, the script resonated with her on a very deep level. Talking about how the film is all about horror, she said that it was also on an emotional and human tangent than anything external. The Dhadak star said that the movie spooked her out and about ten of them fell very very sick.
In Ghost Stories, Janhvi Kapoor will be playing a nurse named Sameera, who takes care of an elderly patient, played by Surekha Sikri. This segment is directed by Zoya Akhtar. As seen in the trailer, she seems to be anxious by unexpected loud knocks on the door.
