Jahnavi Kapoor, like a lot of star kids, completed schooling at Dhirubhai Ambani International School and was among the top students. After passing the school, Jahnavi Kapoor flew to London to complete her higher studies at University in London. She has now graduated from Columbia.
As for the question about Janhavi Mehta joining Bollywood, Juhi Chawla once revealed. "Jahnavi is an avid reader. If there is anything she likes in this world, and if you ask her what she wants as a gift, it will be a book. She said she wanted to be a writer. Then she went through a phase where she said ‘Okay I want to be a model’. Tomorrow she might say ‘I want to be an actress’. Then she might say she wants to drop all this and do sports. I don’t know, but I have learned one thing that you have to let your children do what they want."
