Ananya Panday, known for her fun and lighthearted moments, is once again in the spotlight for an unexpected reason. The young Bollywood actress recently found herself at the center of attention after a video surfaced where she couldn’t figure out how to turn on the gas stove. This incident occurred during a visit to filmmaker Farah Khan’s house, and it quickly went viral, drawing a flurry of comments from netizens.
The Viral Moment: Gas Stove Confusion
Ananya, currently promoting her web series Call Me Bae on Prime Video, visited Farah Khan’s house for a fun interaction. The moment, which was recorded and later posted on Farah’s YouTube channel, showed Ananya in the kitchen. Before attempting to cook, she was puzzled about how to ignite the stove. In the video, she can be seen asking Farah’s cook, Deepak, for help. After Deepak switches on the gas, Farah jokingly says, “Well done!” in a slightly irritated tone.
Online Reactions: Mixed Response
As soon as the video hit social media platforms, users flooded it with reactions. While some found the incident amusing, others were quick to mock the actress. One user commented, “Chunky Pandey, take care of your daughter!” Another quipped, “How can she not know this? She’s 25, not a child.” The general sentiment seemed to lean towards disbelief, with many questioning how such a basic task could stump the actress.
Several users also drew comparisons between Ananya and international model Kendall Jenner. Last year, Kendall faced similar criticism when she struggled to cut a cucumber on The Kardashians show. A user pointed this out, saying, “Ananya is pulling a Kendall Jenner moment!” Others remarked that Ananya might be doing this intentionally for meme-worthy content. “If she’s trying to create meme material, congratulations! If not, this is just plain annoying,” wrote another viewer.
Farah Khan’s Light-Hearted Reaction
While fans and critics alike debated over the incident, Farah Khan took the entire situation lightly. She playfully teased Ananya for not knowing how to turn on the stove, but it was evident that the filmmaker was enjoying the humorous side of the moment. Farah, known for her wit and sarcasm, added a layer of fun to the video, which ultimately helped it go viral.
Work Front: Ananya’s Upcoming Projects
Despite the online chatter, Ananya Panday continues to make strides in her acting career. Her latest web series Call Me Bae, directed by Collin D’Cunha, has garnered attention. The series stars Ananya alongside Gurfateh Pirzada, Varun Sood, Vihaan Samat, and others. Fans are eager to see her performance in this new project.
In addition to Call Me Bae, Ananya has more films lined up. She will be seen in CTRL and also has a significant role in Shankara. Despite the recent criticism, her fans remain supportive and excited about her future projects.
With all eyes on Ananya, both for her viral moments and her on-screen performances, the actress continues to navigate the ups and downs of fame with her signature charm.
