Ananya Panday: I've grown into a version of myself who's not afraid to try
Mumbai: It was in 2019, when her debut film 'Student Of The Year 2' released. Actress Ananya Panday, who has completed six years in Hindi cinema, said that when she started off she was nervous and now she is not afraid to try. 'I was 19 when I started. I was nervous, starry-eyed and still figuring out who I was', she said. The actress added: 'Now, I think I've grown into a version of myself who's not afraid to try, to fall, to rise and to keep surprising people. I'm still learning.' 'I don't have all the answers, but I know I want to keep getting better and to pick roles that challenge me, scare me a little, and keep giving me butterflies' 'Student of the Year 2' is a sports romantic comedy film directed by Punit Malhotra and produced by Karan Johar's Dharma Productions. A standalone sequel to the 2012 film Student of the Year, it stars Tiger Shroff, Tara Sutaria, Ananya Panday, and Aditya Seal. It marks the debuts of both Tara and Ananya in Hindi cinema.
