In today’s episode of Figuring Out, we have Ananya Panday in conversation with Raj Shamani. Some of her popular movies include Student of the Year 2, Kho Gaye Hum Kahan, Pati, Patni Aur Woh, and many more. But in today’s conversation, we delve deeper into understanding Ananya as a person, her childhood, life experiences, and everything that shaped her into who she is today.
We talked about her childhood, why she chose to become an actor, how she became self-conscious during her teenage years, and how she eventually gained the confidence to enter Bollywood. She shared insights into her father’s influence on her decision to act, her definition of being an actor, and Karan Johar’s role in shaping her career. Ananya also opened up about what success means to her, the best and worst advice she has ever received, what charisma means to her, and how she views competition.
Towards the end, we explored her idea of romance, whether she has ever compromised in a relationship, what romantically appeals to her, and a toxic trait she acknowledges in herself. She also shared her thoughts on red flags in relationships, why Shah Rukh Khan is universally loved, and one thing about him that not many people know.
