‘Alcohol addiction is not a sin, it is a disease’, the actress broke her silence with ‘Amha’:

Bollywood’s talented actress Janhvi Kapoor is in the news these days for her outspoken opinions and social work more than her films. Janhvi, who is often a part of the glittering world, has attacked a bitter truth of the society, which is often covered up. Janhvi has challenged the stereotypical thinking that alcohol addiction is a ‘weakness of character’ and has described it as a serious mental health problem.

‘Off The Rocks’: A new initiative to break the silence

Janhvi Kapoor has started a special campaign named ‘Off the Rocks’ in collaboration with mental health organization ‘Amaha’. The main objective of this initiative is to eradicate the ‘social stigma’ associated with alcohol addiction.

At a recent event, Janhvi said something heart-touching:

“There is either complete silence or a lot of criticism regarding alcoholism in the society. People consider it as ‘moral degradation’ whereas it is a clinical problem. We should stop judgment and focus on treatment.”

The blurred line between social drinking and addiction

Expressing concern over today’s lifestyle, Janhvi said that nowadays ‘social drinking’ has become so common that people do not even realize when they have fallen into its clutches. He stressed that when a person is a victim of this addiction, he should be seen as a ‘patient’ who needs medical and mental help, rather than considering him a ‘bad person’.

Janhvi Kapoor’s work front: explosion from South to Bollywood

Along with social concerns, Janhvi’s film career is also on cloud nine at this time. She is going to be seen in many big projects in the coming months:

Peddi: This much-awaited film with South superstar Ram Charan will hit the big screens on April 30, 2026.

Devara: Her pan-India debut with Jr NTR and Saif Ali Khan has already created a stir.

Upcoming Sequel: There is talk that she can also be a part of Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon’s hit film ‘Teri Baton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya 2’.

Sunny Sanskari’s Tulsi Kumari: Her recent release with Varun Dhawan has received a lot of love from the audience.

Asking for help is not weakness, it is bravery

This initiative of Janhvi is a ray of hope for millions of people who keep their illness hidden due to fear of society and ‘what will people say’. The actress has a clear message that raising a hand for mental health is not cowardice, but real bravery.
