Khushi Kapoor Reveals Childhood Deepika Padukone Obsession: “Acting Was in Our Blood”
Growing up in a Bollywood family, it seems acting was always in the cards for Khushi Kapoor. In a recent interview, the young actress opened up about her childhood, sharing endearing stories of how she and sister Janhvi Kapoor would emulate their idol, Deepika Padukone.
Emulating a Bollywood Icon
Khushi confessed that she and Janhvi would often pretend to be Deepika, mimicking her iconic roles and dialogues. This playful imitation, she explained, stemmed from a deep admiration for the actress and a natural inclination towards performance. “Acting is the only thing I’ve truly known,” Khushi revealed, highlighting how being surrounded by the film industry from such a young age shaped her aspirations.
A Family Affair
With a lineage tracing back to legendary actress Sridevi and producer Boney Kapoor, Khushi’s immersion in the world of cinema is hardly surprising. This family legacy, she explains, played a significant role in fostering her love for acting. “Our entire family…” she trailed off, suggesting a shared passion and a lifetime of behind-the-scenes experiences that contributed to her and Janhvi’s career choices. The upcoming release of Khushi’s debut film, *The Archies*, marks an exciting new chapter in this family’s Bollywood story.
