Dressed in her signature elegant silk saree, Rekha arrived at the event and quickly became the centre of attention. Her admiration for Janhvi was evident as she was captured on camera kissing the film's poster featuring the young actress. The video clips that followed were even more endearing. Rekha joined Janhvi, who looked chic in a white dress, and showered her with hugs and kisses on the head, creating a heartwarming moment that instantly went viral. It was as if Rekha was blessing Janhvi and her new film with her touch.



Social media was flooded with comments praising Rekha's maternal affection for Janhvi. One user aptly described the scene, saying, "Rekha ji aaj Sridevi ji ki tarah se Janhvi ko pyar aur aashirwad dene aayi hai, unki aankhon mein voh Mamta dikhti hai.' (Rekha is here to bless Janhvi. Her motherly affection is visible in her eyes.) The comment resonated with many, highlighting the deep bond between the two actresses.

Apart from Rekha, the screening was attended by several other Kapoor family members, including Arjun Kapoor, Khushi Kapoor, and their father, Boney Kapoor.

More about Ulajh

Ulajh, a political thriller, marks a significant role for Janhvi Kapoor as she portrays Suhana, the youngest Deputy High Commissioner, navigating a challenging mission in the London embassy. The film, directed by Sudhanshu Saria and written by him and Parveez Shaikh, also features Gulshan Devaiah, Adil Hussain, Rajesh Tailang, and Roshan Mathew in pivotal roles. Janhvi's performance is a departure from her typical roles, and early reactions suggest she has delivered a powerful performance.

However, the film's box office prospects seem challenging. Advance bookings have been reportedly low, with Ulajh selling less than 750 tickets compared to its competitor, Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha, which managed to sell only 1000 tickets. The film will have to rely heavily on positive word-of-mouth to garner a wider audience.

While the box office performance remains to be seen, one thing is certain: Rekha's heartfelt support for Janhvi has already won the hearts of the audience.
