Ananya Panday shares priceless working experience with Deepika Padukone in Gehraiayaan
In a recent interview with The Week, Ananya Panday was asked to share her working experience with Deepika Padukone in Gehraiyaan.
Calling it an overwhelming experience, the Dream Girl 2 actress shared, "Working with this massive female superstar in such close proximity was something else. It inspired me so much, and I learned little things like a lot of work ethic I picked up from DP."
She further added that Deepika's hard-working commitment during Gehraiyaan workshops inspired her. Ananya shared that none of them expected Padukone to come for every single workshop, but she was there like a student every single day with her notebook.
She also praised the mom-to-be's prioritizing herself on a film set in the most selfless way possible.
"To ask for those 30 seconds before a take to have just silence if you need something, you're never going to get that chance again, you have that one shot to give a take, whatever you need to make that take, ask for it, and I learned that from DP which I'll hold with me forever. So just work ethic and just an inspirational female superstar," Ananya concluded.
Notably, Gehraiyaan also featured Siddhant Chaturvedi in a key role.
