Legendary actress, Sridevi passed away and left the entire nation in shock. The veteran actress was respected not just for the person she was but also because she was the best at what she did. Now, her daughter Janhvi Kapoor is all set to make her Bollywood debut with her upcoming film, 'Dhadak' and Farah Khan, who has worked with Sridevi choreographed a song for Janhvi in the film.

She said, "Janhvi is absolutely lovely and she is a very good dancer. She picks up really fast and to compare her to her mother is the most unfair thing I think because Sri by her age was already a veteran and this is Janhvi’s first film. I love Sri. When I started my career, she really pushed me and I used to do all her shows. But everybody is (a different) individual." Farah recreated the popular track 'Zingat' from blockbuster Marathi film, 'Sairat' for the Hindi remake version. Talking about it, she said, "What happened was when they asked me to do it (recreate the song) for the Hindi version, I was given two briefs. The director (Shashank Khaitan) wanted it like it was done in the earlier movie, very casual, very organic and Karan wanted it to be a big song."

'Dhadak' was earlier scheduled to release on the 6th of July this year, but now it has been postponed for a July 20, 2018, release.
