#AnanyaPanday took to social media to wish the director of her debut film, #StudentOfTheYear2, #PunitMalhotra on his birthday. Ananya uploaded a picture of herself and Punit where they can be seen in river rafting gear with their jackets and helmets on. The never seen before image shows the good bond shared by the duo beyond work space. She uploaded the picture with the caption,

“Happy Birthday P! ♥️ You’re 40!!!😉🤪”

Punit had opened up on his first encounter with Ananya, he shared, “I think when she walked in the office I had made up my mind, because I found her very pretty. I saw this very nice pretty kid and I did not know how big a brat she would be.”

Ananya and Punit also share great chemistry and Punit also made a mention of how difficult it was to handle Ananya on sets, He jokingly mentioned “Ananya was very nice and docile in the beginning. But when I got to know her and she started opening up I was like “Yeh toh bahut danger hain. When we were handling her on the set well we had to handle her. You know.”

Ananya who was handed her debut by Punit in Student Of The Year 2 has come very far ahead in her career since. She won over the audiences and critics with her performance in the movie. Her dancing alongwith her acting made her a fan favourite and she has since amassed a huge fan following amongst the teenagers as well.

Ananya has a busy year to look forward to with multiple releases of hers. She has Pan-India film Liger starring Vijay Deverakonda and Shakun Batra’s untitled next with Deepika Padukone and Siddhant Chaturvedi on the cards.
