Param Sundari: Plot, controversy, and more
Before the release of the film, Janhvi Kapoor had responded to her casting as a Malayali character, as her performance and accent in the trailer had led many people from Kerala, including actresses and content creators, to slam her portrayal. She clarified, saying that her character is “half-Tamilian, half-Malayali.” Speaking to ET Digital, Janhvi said, “Finally, here was a story that had all of that, but also gave me the chance to go towards my roots”.
She further added, “Of course, I’m not a Malayali, and neither was my mother, but my character is actually half-Tamilian and half-Malayali. I’ve always been very interested in that terrain and that culture, and I’m also a huge fan of Malayalam cinema.”
For the unversed, Param Sundari tells the story of Param, a North Indian boy from Delhi, who, in search of his soulmate, falls in love with Sundari, a South Indian girl from Kerala. The film also stars Sanjay Kapoor, Kenji Panicker, Inayat Verma, Manjot Singh, and Abhishek Banerjee, among others.
