1. Ananya Panday’s iconic face-off with Farah Khan
This spring, in March specifically, Farah Khan and Ananya Panday teamed up on an amusing Instagram reel. In this video, they both sported matching red ensembles. As they crossed paths, they exchanged funny, jealous-looking facial expressions. The iconic theme song from Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi could be heard playing in the background.

She said, “Can I tell what happened with me with Jackie sir?

In response to this, Shroff casually mentioned her, “I just wanted to tell you ke main hoon (that I’m here),” in his trademark authoritative tone.

During an interview with Galatta India about her last movie, CTRL, the actress opened up about how she handles breakups and heartaches. Drawing inspiration from Geet from Jab We Met, she explained, “I don’t engage in that practice (burning photos of my ex) anymore, but I have done it before. It’s not unique to me; many others have also done the same. It’s a healthy way to let go of your anger.
6. When Ananya revealed that she ‘cringes’ at herself
Everyone struggles with body image concerns and bouts of self-doubt, including the birthday girl.
