Janhvi Kapoor receives support from Amaha; company issues strong statement clarifying addiction remarks after podcast clip goes viral

Janhvi Kapoor has been at the centre of online speculation after edited clips from her appearance on a podcast were circulated out of context. The clips led to misleading assumptions that the actress was speaking from personal experience about alcohol addiction. Mental health organisation Amaha issued a clarification stating that Kapoor is a caregiver and ally, not someone with a personal history of addiction. The organisation called for accountability from media outlets and individuals to report with integrity and handle conversations around addiction with sensitivity.
