All About Jahnavi Mehta
Jahnavi Mehta is the daughter of actress Juhi Chawla and Jay Mehta, who are co-owners of Kolkata Knight Riders. This is the second time she represented the team on behalf of her parents. She first grabbed eyeballs in 2022 when she sat beside Shah Rukh Khan's kids Aryan Khan and Suhana Khan for the auction. At the event, Juhi had called the three kids 'the present' of their team (KKR) and 'not just the future'. Jahnavi, along with Aryan and Suhana, was seen at the 2022 Indian Premier League (IPL) auction ceremony, where all three represented their parents.
Jahnavi has graduated from the prestigious Columbia University in New York. According to her mom, this young KKR girl is a cricket buff and the knowledge of the sport "comes naturally" to her.
In 2022, Juhi called Jahnavi and actor SRK's children 'the present and the future' of their team. When asked if they are the future of KKR, the actress had replied, “Not just the future, they are the present of the team. It is very funny how there was a time when our kids would be at home and we would be on the screen. Suddenly, it was the other way around because I was home watching my daughter on-screen. It was beautiful. God bless her, Aryan and Suhana. I wish them all the best.”
Jahnavi does have an Instagram profile, but she prefers to stay away from social media and rarely posts anything on the platform. Currently, she is not interested in making her debut in Bollywood.
