Quotes
- “Some characters just feel close to who I am, and that excites me. It's like representing your generation, giving people the comfort of seeing themselves on screen. If I can do that for my generation, that would be amazing.”
- “I actually think like a set is my safe space. I don't feel scared, I don't feel judged... it feels like my play area. When I'm not told what to do, I get conscious... The moment I'm left on my own, I feel like what I do with my hands? How do I walk?”

Encyclopedic overview
Ananya Panday ( pronounced [əˈnənjaː ˈpaːɳɖeː]; born 30 October 1998) is an Indian actress who primarily works in Hindi films. Born to actor Chunky Panday, she began her acting career in 2019 with roles in the romantic comedies Student of the Year 2 and Pati Patni Aur Woh. These performances earned her the Filmfare Award for Best Female Debut. In 2025, she was featured in Forbes Asia's 30 Under 30 list.
Panday's two subsequent theatrical releases were poorly received, but she had a commercial success with a brief role in the comedy Dream Girl 2 (2023). On streaming, her performances as a young woman navigating the perils of urban life and technology in the drama films Gehraiyaan (2022) and Kho Gaye Hum Kahan (2023), the thriller film CTRL (2024), and the comedy series Call Me Bae (2024) were well received. She earned further praise for her role as a lawyer in the courtroom drama Kesari Chapter 2 (2025), which was also a box-office success.
