00:00I think I'm Mamma ki Mamma, you know, in some ways.
00:02I prefer phone calls.
00:04Texting mein main bahut, matlab, bekaar hoon.
00:06Main reply karti hi nahi hoon.
00:08Oh, Maa!
00:09Kaha hai meri behen?
00:14What is a challenge you face,
00:16which your parents' generation never had to?
00:19I think social media.
00:21I think it's something that they never had to face.
00:23And I think it's changed the dynamics completely
00:26for every actor and how they interact with audiences.
00:29I think that, you know, at first,
00:31there was a very aspirational relationship
00:33between actors and audiences.
00:35And now it's more based on relatability.
00:38I mean, of course, there's like a huge plus side to it.
00:41And, you know, you can connect with people
00:43and you're in charge of your own narrative.
00:45But then there's like the negative,
00:46which is of course the trolling and the boycotting
00:49and the this and the that,
00:50which we're all dealing with from time to time.
00:53Are you very active on social media?
00:55Not as much as I should be.
00:58Yeah.
00:58Not at all.
00:59In fact, like Karan, Em, my team,
01:04they're all, I think once every week or two weeks,
01:07they have a meeting with me and they're like,
01:08what's happening?
01:09Why are you not posting?
01:11Like, I don't know.
01:12I mean, I post when I want to post.
01:16It's just, I don't feel like as often.
01:18So now let's talk about today's text messaging culture.
01:22If someone calls you directly without texting first,
01:26like, do you pick up the call?
01:28I prefer phone calls.
01:29I'm really bad at texting.
01:31I don't reply at all.
01:33And like so many times I've typed out messages
01:35and I forget to send them.
01:37So please call me.
01:38Don't text me.
01:40I'm the worst texter in the world.
01:42What's with everything being like you just said,
01:44you know, like an abbreviation.
01:45In fact, I've come up with a game for you.
01:48I'll give you some short forms
01:50and you have to tell me if you know their full forms or not.
01:54Okay.
01:55But there's a twist.
01:56Cause you have to talk like Kylie Jenner when you answer.
02:00Oh my God.
02:01I don't know if I can.
02:02Like right now,
02:04I'm doing Bihari diction classes right now
02:06and you're telling me to do it.
02:08I'm going to try.
02:09I think you can.
02:10I'm going to try.
02:11It's going to be hard, but I'm going to do it.
02:14Oh my God.
02:16What is IMO?
02:19IMO.
02:20I don't know,
02:21but I feel like it should be something like,
02:24I'm missing out.
02:26Is that what it means?
02:28Well, I think IMO is in my opinion.
02:31Oh God.
02:33This is a huge flop.
02:36TB8.
02:37Okay. To be honest,
02:39is that what it means?
02:40To be honest?
02:41Yeah.
02:42Yes.
02:43IKR.
02:45I know, right?
02:46Oh, wow.
02:47This is really going well.
02:50LMK.
02:51Let me know.
02:52Hmm.
02:54NGL.
02:55Never get...
02:57Ooh.
03:00Give up.
03:00I can't do it.
03:01Not going to lie.
03:02Not going to lie. Okay, fine.
03:04I'm going to send this on WhatsApp today.
03:06ICYMI.
03:08I really, I really don't know.
03:10I'm sorry. You're going to have to help me out with this.
03:12I just, I don't know.
03:13Ah, in case you missed it.
03:16I definitely, clearly missed it.
03:18And HMU.
03:19It's not hair and makeup.
03:21How much...
03:23Oh, mom.
03:25Where is my sister?
03:26Hit, hit me up.
03:29Hit me up. Okay.
03:30Yeah, God.
03:31This is sounding like, I mean,
03:32actually, do people talk like this?
03:34So now I want to know,
03:35which family member do you feel
03:37the most generation gap with?
03:40And what is it usually regarding?
03:42Between me and Khushi,
03:44there's the biggest generation gap.
03:47Because I feel like I'm from the Adam era in front of her.
03:51She's very...
03:52Oh, God.
03:52And she's like from the future, I think.
03:54The way that she thinks and how independent
03:57and fun and chilled out she is about things.
03:59And I'm very like,
04:01I think I'm mom's mom, you know, in some ways.
04:03How sensitive I am, how needy I am.
04:05So the generation gap there is massive.
04:08And I'm also very technologically challenged.
04:10And when it comes to romance and dating,
04:12do you think your generation is lucky to have so much choice?
04:16Or is it a bad thing?
04:19It's good, but...
04:21I've never been on an app like this.
04:24So I don't know the perks of that.
04:26But a lot of my friends, you know,
04:28use Bumble and they go on these dates.
04:30And I think it's a fun experience.
04:33You get to meet new people and learn new things.
04:36So I think there's an openness,
04:39which is a good thing, I think.
04:41And speaking of romance and dating,
04:43in this generation,
04:44it's all about women making the first move, right?
04:47So, Janhvi, have you ever asked someone out?
04:50Never.
04:51Never, but I'm very sly.
04:53I'm very like, I'll drop my hints,
04:55but I won't make it too obvious
04:57till I know that the other person is for sure interested.
05:00But it's fun, right?
05:01A little bit of eyelash batting,
05:04a little bit of joking around.
05:06I enjoy the attention, but I'll never like...
05:09I've never made the first move.
05:11I'm a little bit of a coward like that.
05:12I think something that people from my generation feel
05:15is social media and instant messaging.
05:19I think your generation is used to constant instant validation.
05:23Whether, you know, your movie releases,
05:25you get the reviews,
05:26everybody's like, you know, wow,
05:28shot to superstardom,
05:29and like, you know, that's just the way it is.
05:31But I don't think that's very healthy.
05:34So do you agree or disagree?
05:35No, I completely agree.
05:37Because what comes quickly, goes quickly.
05:41And it's very important to understand that
05:43you can't depend on success or failure.
05:50In this age of Instagram, social media and the internet,
05:55we shouldn't get too attached to these things.
05:57I think it can really mess you up.
05:58And everyone and anyone is susceptible to it.
06:01It's not like you're an actor,
06:02releases are coming, reviews are coming.
06:04It's even as small as,
06:06you post a picture,
06:0710 likes, you're happy.
06:09The next day, you post another picture,
06:115 likes less, you start cursing yourself.
06:14Like, I've seen this happen in people,
06:16and it's not normal.
06:17It's not normal, I think.
06:19So it's definitely not healthy.
06:20I think this generation has to also learn
06:24a little bit of more hard work,
06:26you know, to kind of achieve their goals.
06:28Yeah, for sure.
06:29I'm sitting here and saying yes,
06:31I've done a lot in life,
06:33but I agree with you.
