Although Rajan was not from a filmy family, he belongs to the same elite class. They reportedly had a long-lasting friendship that eventually turned into something romantic.

Ishaan Khatter (2017-2018)
Profession: Actor
How did they meet: On the set Dhadak
Khattar and Kapoor made their Bollywood debut with Dhadak (2018), a remake of Marathi hit Sairat. They reportedly fell in love while shooting for the film. Although they never formalised their relationship, they were spotted together several times before and after the film’s release. After some time they started visiting the same gym to spend more time together and were often photographed going in and out together.
The Bollywood lovers were together for about a year and split in 2018. However, they still remain friends. In an interview with RJ Siddharth, Kanana Kapoor spoke about her relationship with Khattar and confessed that there is still a lot of warmth between them.
The Pippa actor later spoke about how she had saved Kapoor’s number in her phone after the breakup in an episode of Koffee With Karan season 8. During the rapid fire, Karan asked, “Last time you were on ‘Koffee with Karan’ you said you had Janhvi’s number in your phone ‘Is it Aloo?’ Now what?” Khattar quipped, “It’s Janhvi Boney Kapoor now. Her full name,” referring to the fact that they are no longer romantically involved.
Kartik Aaryan (2021)
Profession: Actor
How did they meet: On the set of Dostana 2
Next on the list of Janhvi Kapoor’s ex-boyfriends is heartthrob Kartik Aaryan. The two actors were set to share the screen in the much-anticipated Dostana 2, a collaboration that not only promised to bring two formidable on-screen talents together but also sparked speculations about a budding romance.
The alleged couple was also spotted holidaying in Goa, leaving fans dreamy and excited. However, Aryan decided to walk away from Dostana 2, causing quite a stir in tinsel town. It has been suggested that a conflict between film director Karan Johar and Aryan could be the reason behind this unexpected turn of events.
Later, in an episode of KWK season 7, in which Kapoor appeared alongside Sara Ali Khan, both revealed that they had an ex-partner, confirming that the Chandu Champion star is the guy who once stole Miss J’s heart.
The director and host of the show also established in the same episode that he and Aryan were cordial.
Shikhar Pahariya (2016; 2022 to present)
Profession: Businessman and professional polo player
How did they meet: School friends
Janhvi Kapoor is currently dating her school friend Shikhar Pahariya. The lovebirds began dating in 2016 but took a break and rekindled their romance in 2022.
Their alleged relationship has been creating quite a buzz in the media lately. They were spotted together at temples, film screenings, family functions and most recently, they stole the show at the Ambani wedding.
Although neither of the two ever confirmed their relationship, they didn’t have to make it official as it became evident from their exchanges on social media, cozy pictures getting leaked and the big reveal on Koffee With Karan season 7. Notably, Shikhar and his brother Vir Pahariya’s name became popular after the show’s host Karan Johar suggested that Sara Ali Khan and Janhvi Kapoor have dated siblings in the past.
“I think back to the time before the pandemic. I don’t know what your level of friendship is today, but I don’t remember it not existing. I remember you both dated your siblings before…” KJo had said in an episode of season 7, which clearly shocked both the actors. Johar further added, “That was the past. You both dated two brothers. And the common thing between the three of us is that they both lived in my building.
Although neither Kapoor nor Khan revealed the identity of the brothers, the media figured out who the brothers were.
Recently, in April 2024, Kapoor wore a necklace bearing the Pahariya surname “Shiku” on Ajay Devgn’s Maidaan show, confirming the relationship.
That’s the end of Janhvi Kapoor’s boyfriend list and her dating history. Stay tuned to this space to know more developments in the Bollywood star’s love life.
