MUMBAI: Jhanvi Kapoor who is currently  in the US with her sister Khushi and her half-sister Anshula  returns to some heavy-duty preparation for her next film Helen. The film is a remake of the National award winning Malayalam film Helen helmed by Mathukutty Xavier, which will cast Jhanvi as a simple, honest, and a charming working-class girl who gets locked in the freezer of a supermarket.

The film  would require Jhanvi to project her fears and  physical  collapse in below-zero temperature. Jhanvi will spend time in  isolation and also experience first-hand the trauma of being placed in freezing temperature.

Boney Kapoor, who produces the film, said that it’s a challenge for Jhanvi to be doing a  survivalist drama so early in her career. “If you look fake doing it, the audience will reject the  film. Janhvi will  have to work really hard to convince the audience of her character’s predicament.”, said Boney.

The last Indian actor to look fully convincing in a survivalist drama was Jhanvi’s Roohi co-star - Rajkummar Rao in Trapped.
