Janhvi Kapoor celebrates four years of her film Roohi and her dance number Nadiyon Par in the film.

'4 yrs of #Roohi and my first solo dance number. I was such a kid. So nervous about this song. Hadn't even learnt how to keep my eyes open without squinting under harsh lights,' she reminisces, looking back at the horror comedy that released on March 11, 2020.

'Rehearsed for 3 days betweenGoodluck Jerry's shoot, shot in Patiala all night for GLJ, flew out post pack up in the morning, shot Nadiyon Paar that night and finished the song in 7 hours with no sleep and flew back immediately to resume Jerry that day,' she recalls.
