‘Shaitan’ fame Janaki Bodiwala is once again in discussion. In the Gujarati film ‘Vash’, he won the hearts of every viewer by becoming Jahnavi with Arya and then Ajay Devgan in his remake. Now she is going to be seen in ‘Vash Level 2’. This is a sequel to ‘Vash’ in 2023.
Made in Gujarati, the film is also being released at Pan India level in August 27, 2025 Hindi. Recently, Janaki had a special conversation with Dainik Bhaskar. During this, the actress also shared the story of the first meeting with Shah Rukh Khan. Here is some special excerpt ..
How scary is going to be your film ‘Vash Level 2’?
More than intimidation, it is a psychological thriller film. There are no ghosts or super natural things in it, but there are people who will be shocked to see on screen. The audience will have such a reaction that it is very real.
Your face is very innocent, so how difficult it was to prepare for such a role?
I shot ‘Vash’ in 2022. I did not even think someone would give me such a film. Thanks to the director who pushed me and taught everything. Today everyone knows how ‘Vash’ became a National Award winning Gujarati film.
How to see the level of preparation this time?
When I play someone, I live it at the same time. For example, there was a dance scene in the film ‘Shaitan’, in which I danced for 25 minutes continuously so that it would look real. For this reason, I like physical acting and if they are good directors, then they keep telling what can be done better.
Did you already have this talent in you or had to learn?
I now went and notice myself that I have so much anger and energy. The director guided me, while taking the audition, he guided me, said how much he had to laugh, I kept on speaking and suddenly a slight smile came on her face, which I came to know that he was happy with my acting ..
How long did it take to get out of your character?
The good thing for me was that my co-actors helped. I noticed that those people play so many intense roles in shots and become normal as soon as they are cut. I learned from that. I give full credit to my co-actors.
Did you get any acting tips from actor Ajay Devgan or R Madhavan during the film ‘Satan’?
They guided me that I am doing well, but if I do it, it would be better. His support and guidance was complete. When I won the award with this film, Ajay Devgan and Jyothika Maam also congratulated and congratulated.
How was your ‘something’ with Shah Rukh Khan?
Did not believe. In the entire event, only one award was given by Shahrukh Sir. Say I got it. When the IIFA 2025 Award of Best Supporting Actress for her performance in the film ‘Satan’ will be given by Shah Rukh Khan. And, when Shah Rukh Khan gave the award. I do not have a word to express that moment. It was such a feeling that will remain throughout his life. Not everyone has this luck.
