Ananya Panday on how she used life lessons to play Tia in Gehraiyaan: Have experienced betrayal, cheating

Ananya Panday has been causing quite a stir in town. The actress has only been in the industry for three films, but she has already carved out a niche for herself. And now, the Student of the Year 2 actress is gaining popularity for her upcoming film Gehraiyaan. 

Gehraiyaan is directed by Shakun Batra and stars Deepika Padukone and Siddhant Chaturvedi in the lead roles. Ananya plays the lead role in the film, and her character, Tia, will be seen navigating a web of complicated relationships.

While the film has already set tongues wagging, Ananya's performance in the trailer has left viewers wanting more. Interestingly, Ananya recently opened up about how she got into the character's skin, stating that she drew inspiration from real-life emotions to some extent. That's not all. Ananya also stated that she has been the victim of betrayal and cheating in her life.

In a recent conversation with a news portal, the actress said, 

“I am only 23 years old. When I started working on this film, I was 21 at that time. There definitely were certain things that I haven’t experienced in life yet. So, I couldn’t completely take an experience of my life and kind of recreate how I felt at that moment. I have felt certain emotions that Tia’s felt before like betrayal or cheating. Maybe it wasn’t in context to a relationship or a very serious thing, but I could relate to those emotions on a surface level at least”.

To note, Gehraiyaan will mark Ananya’s first collaboration with Deepika, Siddhant and Shakun and she is all praises for the team.
