She only shares Bhojpuri stories: Shakun Batra and Deepika Padukone tease Ananya Panday

Team Gehraiyaan is currently on a promotional spree as they are gearing up for the release of the film. Ananya Panday recently claimed in an interview that she watched Swedish and Polish films before her meeting with Shakun Batra and was teased about it by Shakun and Deepika Padukone. 

The Student Of The Year 2 actress said that she did not remember as Shakun and Deepika quizzed her about the names of the films she watched.

During an interview with a leading news portal, Shakun was told about Ananya watching Polish films. He laughed and told her, 

“First, you name three Polish films.” 

Deepika joined him in teasing her. Ananya said, 

“I don’t remember the names.” 

On being asked by Deepika to ‘name one at least’, she said, 

“No, then I stopped watching when I realised how Shakun actually is.” 

The filmmaker joked that Ananya and him bond on Bhojpuri stories. He said, 

“Let me tell you what Ananya and I share over Instagram. Ananya only shares Bhojpuri stories on my Instagram and that’s really where we bond. Our real true connect is in real trash.”

At the trailer launch of Gehraiyaan, producer Karan Johar said that the trailer might give the impression that the film is about infidelity in relationships but there is much more to it. 

The film stars Siddhant Chaturvedi, Ananya Panday, Deepika Padukone and Dhairya Karwa in the lead roles. It is scheduled for a direct-to-digital release on Amazon Prime Video on February 11.

Gehraiyaan is Ananya and Deepika’s first collaboration with Shakun. The film deals with the chaotic lives of the four primary characters and the complexity of modern relationships. It also stars Naseeruddin Shah and Rajat Kapoor in pivotal roles.
