Celebrating the 35th anniversary of "Jagadeka Veerudu Athiloka Sundari", the makers re-released the project in theatres on May 9.

Calling the revival of the film a gift to cinema lovers, Janhvi penned, "The revival of this new print couldn’t have been executed by more able hands and is a gift to cinema lovers today, it felt like a visual spectacle that would give our contemporary films a run for their money. Thank you for this @swapnaduttchalasani @vyjayanthimovies @nag_ashwin Cinema at its peak #JVAS #jagadeekaveeruduatilokasundari."

Directed by K. Raghavendra Rao, the movie shares the tale of a man who finds a ring with great power, however, the goddess who lost the ring is in search of it to return to her world.

Released on 9 May 1990, "Jagadeka Veerudu Athiloka Sundari" became the highest-grossing Telugu film of the time.

Work-wise, Janhvi Kapoor is waiting for the release of some promising dramas such as "Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari" with Varun Dhawan, and "Param Sundari", alongside Sidharth Malhotra.
