Bhavana Pandey critics Ananya Panday’s acting in Student Of The Year 2
When asked which film of Ananya Panday did she live up to expectations; to which Bhavana Pandey answered,” I think she did everything she could from her side. She gave her best effort. Of course, there are so many factors that matter in a film. Maybe in Student of the Year 2… she was too raw. So I wouldn’t say she didn’t try her best, but perhaps she wasn’t fully aware of what to do.”
Ananya Panday’s best performance
When asked which film she felt Ananya Panday gave her best performance, to this Bhavana Pandey said, “I think she was amazing in the films Kho Gaye Hum Kahan and Call Me Bae. I absolutely loved her.” She continued, “I think she was very funny. I don’t want to sound like an obsessed fan, but I keep rewatching that series. Whenever I have nothing else to watch, I put it on because. It’s just so funny. I really enjoyed her character in Call Me Bae.”
