Janhvi Kapoor marked her 29th birthday with a deeply spiritual visit to the Tirumala Venkateswara Temple, continuing a personal tradition of devotion she has followed for years. The actress undertook the historic Alipiri footpath pilgrimage, joining prayers and rituals in a serene and heartfelt celebration.
Janhvi Kapoor walked the historic Alipiri footpath, an 11-kilometre pilgrimage with over 3,500 steps, reaching the temple late at night. She stayed on the hill overnight, ready to offer prayers in the early morning rituals and receive blessings. On the morning of her birthday, Janhvi Kapoor had a VIP break darshan of Lord Venkateswara.
She was blessed by Vedic scholars at the Ranganayakula Mandapam with traditional chants, and temple authorities presented her with sacred teertha prasadam. A viral video captured her serene climb, dressed simply in a white kurta with earphones tucked in, embodying calm devotion. Janhvi also performed prayers alongside veteran actress Maheshwari, taking part fully in the spiritual atmosphere of the temple.
Janhvi Kapoor has often shared that she takes her film scripts to Tirumala before beginning new projects, believing the blessings of Lord Venkateswara bring strength and guidance. She also observes the temple on personal milestones, including the birthday of her late mother, Sridevi. This isn’t the first time Janhvi Kapoor has celebrated her birthday at Tirumala. On her 27th birthday, she visited with rumoured boyfriend Shikhar Pahariya and her close friend Orry.
