Ananya Panday, who made her silver screen debut with Dharma Productions’ Student of the Year 2 (2019), is presently gearing up for the release of her next film, Gehraiyaan. Directed by Shakun Batra, the much-awaited film also stars Deepika Padukone and Siddhant Chaturvedi in lead roles. Panday, who is just 3 films old, said that there was a family-like atmosphere on the sets of Gehraiyaan.

Talking to a publication, the newcomer said that it was not difficult for her to settle in on the sets of the film with Padukone and Chaturvedi. She also added that no one on the sets made her feel like she was new and that working on the film helped her grow as a person and actor.

Panday is all praises for her director, Shakun Batra. “Shakun is a dream director for me. I am a huge fan of his previous work and I was hoping and praying for a chance to work with him. I was drawn to how real, grey and complex the characters were. It was all in the writing for me — everything felt so honest and natural. I felt there was a lot I could borrow of myself for the part,” she said.

Talking about working with Padukone and Chaturvedi, Panday said, “If I have learned anything, it is that acting is a lot of reacting. So, on the contrary, it is always a blessing to have stronger performances opposite you to feed. The whole team was working in synergy, and we were like a family where no one made me feel like I was new in any way.”
