The resurgence of COVID-19 cases in the country has become the topic of concern. State governments have imposed night curfews and have begun to ask people to stay home. As the film industry is also one of the hard hit industries with many projects being postponed and cancelled, actor Janhvi Kapoor expressed concerns about the job opportunities and financial crisis that people go through during the lockdown. 

Janhvi Kapoor is one of the actors who had their film released in theatres in 2021. The actor's horror-comedy Roohi was among the first few movies that reached the theatres during the pandemic. As per a report by Hindustan Times, Janhvi Kapoor believes Roohi was released during a tough time when the success of films was uncertain.

However, the actor calls herself lucky as people in good numbers went to watch her film, which was an experiment to measure the climate of the films during the pandemic. As people did go to the theatres to watch the film, Janhvi Kapoor found it encouraging.
