Bollywood actress Janhvi Kapoor, eldest daughter of veteran late Sridevi is making her south debut with a Telugu film opposite Jr NTR. The actress is working for NTR 30, under the direction of Koratala Siva in Hyderabad.

Janhvi Kapoor expressed her willingness to work in more southern films and made it clear that she wants to act with every star in the Tamil and Telugu industries, many a time. The actress was signed for NTR 30 after several negotiations, for a whopping remuneration of Rs 4 Crore.

If the rumours mills are anything to go by, there is news that is doing the rounds on the internet today. Janhvi Kapoor is likely to get on board for another exciting project featuring none other than Akhil Akkineni. The actor's latest spy action drama 'Agent' was released on April 28 to a lukewarm response at the box office.

According to a few websites like Gulte, Janhvi Kapoor will be sharing screen space with Akhil in a movie that will be directed by debut filmmaker Anil Kumar. Anil worked as an assistant director to Sujeeth on Prabhas' Sahoo. The banner managed by Vamsee and Pramod titled 'UV Creations' will bankroll the movie. However, the official confirmation of the same is anyway awaited.

Janhvi Kapoor and Akhil Akkineni would definitely make a great on-screen pair and the fans of both the actors are thrilled about the same. Meanwhile, the box office result of Akhil Akkineni's Agent, written by Vakkantham Vamsi and directed by Surender Reddy, came as a huge shock and disappointment to the entire team, Akhil, and his fans. Out of six films he featured as a lead actor, only one film was a successful one.

Meanwhile, Janhvi Kapoor's last release Mili and Akhil's Agent have not performed up to the mark at the box office. Janhvi Kapoor pinned high hopes on the Jr NTR-starrer, which she believes is a perfect launch for her acting career in the Southern industries.
