We are clearly getting along really well: Ananya Panday shares intersting picture with Mike Tyson

Ananya Panday is excited about shooting with the former heavy-weight champion Mike Tyson, for her upcoming pan-India film, ‘Liger’ with Vijay Deverakonda.

Taking to her Instagram handle, the actress shared a quirky picture of herself with Mike and it is sure to leave you green with envy.

Dressed in a black full-sleeved crop-top and blue jeans, Ananya looked stunning as ever in the pictures as she makes a goofy face for the picture. 

Mike, on the other hand, is seen looking dashing as ever in his grey t-shirt.

Along with the fun picture, she wrote,

'‘We’re clearly getting along really well (boxing glove emoticon) @miketyson #LIGER  @thedeverakonda #PuriJagannadh @charmmekaur @karanjohar @apoorva1972 @dharmamovies @puriconnects  @shubhamgosalia’'

The actress chooses to hilariously recreate the (in)famous ear bite that Tyson is known for apart from his skills in the ring.

For the unversed in 1997 when fighting Evander Holyfield in the ring, Tyson was so annoyed by the way his opponent was sparring, he bit his ear off. 

The fight has come to be known as ‘the bite fight’ through the years.

As soon as she shared the post on Instagram, comments started pouring in from all sides. Her fans were all starry eyed over the iconic photo.

This is Mike's first Bollywood film, whille Tyson has acted before, in a Hindi film over 15 years ago. In 2007, he appeared in the Hindi comic adventure Fool N Final.

Shooting for Liger is currently in progress in Las Vegas and key scenes are being canned. The film has been shot in Mumbai, with schedules delayed due to the on-going pandemic. It remains to be seen when the film will be wrapped up and hit screens. 

This is the first time Ananya and Vijay will be seen sharing the screen space. The makers of the film reportedly had Kiara Advani in mind initially. However, due to reasons best known to them, they eventually roped in Ananya for the role.

Apart from that, Ananya will next be seen in Shakun Batra’s next where she will be seen sharing the screen space with Deepika Padukone and Siddhant Chaturvedi in lead roles.
