Seeing Janhvi Kapoor wear Sridevi’s saree at the 65th National Film Awards yesterday was really heartwarming, to say the least. It almost felt like Sridevi has come alive to receive her first National Award and the fact Janhvi holds such a striking similarity to her mother, further makes it all the more beautiful. While we knew it was Janhvi’s own little way to pay a tribute to her late mother by wearing her pride at the prestigious ceremonyt. Little did we expect this saree would also have a Ram Charan connect. ALSO READ: Daughter Janhvi Kapoor receives National Film Award on behalf of late Sridevi wearing her saree – view pic

Reminds us of Ram Charan’s tweet after Sridevi’s sudden demise. She was like family to him as he wrote, “Deeply shocked and saddened to hear about the sudden demise of Sridevi garu.More strength to her family in this time of grief. May her soul rest in peace.A major loss to the film fraternity and to our family. My heartfelt condolences to her family at this time of grief. RIP.” Ram Charan is sure to get highly nostalgic after seeing Janhvi’s pictures in this saree.
Manish Malhotra was the first one to bring the ‘saree’ reference to everyone’s notice as he shared Janhvi’s picture from the awards ceremony saying, “The very pretty @janhvikapoor as she goes to Receive Sridevi Ma’am’s Much Deserved National Award for her fabulous performance in Mom’ … An Actress and a human being and the friend that we all miss every day of our life’s … #jhanvikapoor in her Mom s personel Saree for this emotional and precious moment.”
