In India, Janhvi Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao’s ‘Mr. and Mrs. Mahi’ opened at INR 6.85 crore on Friday, May 31. Internet critics and fans laud Jahnvi for her excellent performance in the film. The netizens also praised her batting methods and stroke-making, notably her free swing to centre the ball and hit the stands.
The actress said Kolkata Knight Riders assistant coach Abhishek Nayar gave her official tutoring. According to Jahnvi, Nayar taught her formal tactics and coached her like KKR players. The actress also said she trained with Dinesh Karthik.
Abhishek Nayar, KKR’s assistant coach, is my coach. He trained me like the KKR players for an IPL season at his training camp. This training camp included Dinesh Karthik and me. Our training programme was identical. We know a lot about street cricket, but knowing how to time the ball in professional cricket is challenging, Janhvi Kapoor said.
Sharing Janhvi Kapoor’s reveal video on X (previously Twitter), a fan said, “Abhishek Nayar did a perfect job twice in one season.”

As for Nayar, he’s getting a lot of credit for his flawless execution of coaching duties; in the 2024 Indian Premier League, he assisted KKR in winning their third championship. The fact that the former Mumbai hitter has now provided an actor with model cricket shots shows how good he is at his profession.
Regarding the movie itself, it has garnered over 7,000 reviews and a 7.3 out of 10 rating on the well-known movie rating website IMDb. Karan Johar was the film’s producer. Veteran actors like Kumud Mishra, Rajesh Sharma, and Zarina Wahab play important supporting roles in the movie in addition to Janhvi and Rajkummar. Amit Trivedi, a well-known musician, collaborated with Manan Bharadwaj to produce the background music.
