Janhvi Kapoor Breaks Silence on Alcohol Addiction Rumours, Calls Claims Deeply Concerning

Desk Correspondent , Mumbai - Janhvi Kapoor has addressed recent rumours linking her to alcohol addiction, firmly clarifying that the claims stem from a misinterpretation of her earlier remarks. The controversy began after her candid conversation on Raj Shamani’s podcast, where she spoke about a difficult phase in her life.

During the podcast, Janhvi revealed that she had gone through a traumatic experience, after which she began consuming alcohol more frequently. However, she clearly stated that she was neither addicted nor abusing alcohol. Despite this, parts of her statement were taken out of context and widely circulated, leading to speculation about addiction. Responding to the narrative, Janhvi shared an official statement from mental health initiative Off The Rocks in collaboration with Amaha. The statement criticised certain media outlets for misrepresenting her words, calling the situation “deeply concerning.” It clarified that Janhvi is associated with the initiative as a caregiver and ally, not as someone with personal experience of addiction or dependency. The statement further emphasized that such misinformation not only distorts her role but also undermines the real struggles of individuals dealing with addiction. It urged media platforms and users to report responsibly and avoid spreading misleading content for attention.

By directly addressing the issue, Janhvi Kapoor has put the rumours to rest, reinforcing the importance of context and responsible storytelling. As she continues her professional journey, including her upcoming film Peddi, the actor’s response serves as a reminder of the impact misinformation can have—both on individuals and on sensitive public conversations.
