The lines between languages and regions are blurring, thanks to the effortless synchronization of the
Hindi and South film industries. As prominent B-town actors make their glorious debuts in regional movies, celebrities from down south are showcasing some incredible work in Bollywood.
Speaking of upcoming South Indian movies, guess which Bollywood actor is all set to make her Tollywood debut? Janhvi Kapoor will be seen next in RC 16 alongside
Ram Charan and Chiranjeevi.
The news was announced on her 27th birthday in March earlier this year. This will mark Janhvi Kapoor's second South Indian film after Devara. It stars Jr. NTR and Saif Ali Khan in the lead.

On Wednesday, the three superstars were spotted in Hyderabad as they attended the launching ceremony of RC 16. Apart from the film's cast and crew, Ram Charan's wife, Upasana Kamineni Konidela, and Janhvi Kapoor's father, Boney Kapoor, were also present.

Janhvi Kapoor shares her biggest regret
Like her mother, the Bawaal actress is also embarking on the path to do movies in multiple languages, starting from down South. Her first Telugu film, Devara, will be opposite Jr. NTR.
In an interview, she was asked if the language was easy to grasp. Sharing one of her biggest regrets, Janhvi said not learning Telugu is something she isn't proud of.

I can understand it phonetically, but I can't speak it. Yes, it is one of my biggest regrets. This part of me had been dormant for a while. But the Devara team is very patient and helpful. They are working with such stalwarts, and I am so grateful they are just a call away to help me with my lines,' said the actress.
Speaking about her upcoming project with Ram Charan, it seems Boney Kapoor is far more excited than the actress herself.
In an interview, the filmmaker said, 'My daughter has already shot for a film with Jr. NTR. She's loving every bit of the day she spends on sets here. Soon, she will start a film with Ram Charan too. These two boys are doing very well."
"She has been watching a lot of Telugu films, and she feels blessed to work with them. Hopefully, the films will work, and she will get more work. She will also act with Suriya soon. My wife (
Sridevi) acted in multiple languages I hope my daughter does the same,' he further added.
