She will be seen this week in the hugely anticipated bilingual film Liger, alongside Vijay Deverakonda.
“I was scared because it’s a very out-there, confident character. I really like such films, but when it’s about acting in it, I become a little apprehensive because it requires a lot of breaking of inhibitions, and, you know, going all out, making faces and saying dialogues that you might actually not say in real life,” Ananya tells
Liger marks your first pan-India film. How does that feel?
As an actor, you always want your story, your characters and your films to reach as many people as possible.
I feel it’s my debut in four languages.
Having said that, I think we see this film as an Indian film because that’s the crux, the emotional crux of the film, that everyone would be able to relate to it.
Do you think this film has the potential to make your presence felt in the South as well?
I hope so.
I am trying something different and this is my first massy, out-and-out comedy sort of film.

But I hope people like it.
Did you take any tips from your father Chunky Pandey?
Yeah. The only thing he said was that I have to do a massy film because he loves massy films. He has been a part of so many.
