After five years in Bollywood, Ananya Panday still finds it difficult to establish herself and win over the public.

This month marks the actor Ananya Panday’s half-decade mark in the motion picture business. She made her acting debut in Student of the Year 2. She appears to be still having trouble getting accepted by the public, though, as they keep discounting her acting abilities in movie after movie.

Despite a few above average performances in films like Gehraiyaan, Dream Girl 2, and Kho Gaye Hum Kahan, Ananya has yet to feature in a film that would allow her to establish herself as a stand-alone artist and garner critical acclaim for her acting skills.

What, then, is preventing her from winning the audience’s affection and respect? Trade Insiders say that’s the image she’s created both on and off screen.

Producer and industry expert Girish Johar remarks on Panday’s movie preferences, pointing out that she is not willing to take chances. She must choose the appropriate films and align herself with the appropriate projects in terms of events and endorsements. It’s not required that you collaborate with well-known actors or directors. “Who is preventing her from investigating novel concepts under the guidance of inexperienced directors?” he queries.

He says that Panday needs to venture outside of her comfort zone and cites actors who have succeeded by attempting a variety of roles. “So many talented people have worked on their own independently on projects, whether they are smaller releases or independent films, and they have proven themselves by going the hard way.

I would advise Ananya to do the same instead of focusing only on working with well-known celebrities. She is in a comfortable to all things; who knows, maybe one of them will work and she’ll regain her footing,” Johar adds.

Ananya is being trolled in her most recent Instagram post:

Following his stunning debut in SOTY 2, Panday starred in the commercial potboiler Pati Patni Aur Woh, which also starred Bhumi Pednekar and Kartik Aaryan. However, the movie was a box office bust. At the height of the pandemic, she released Khaali Peeli digitally, but it was not well received.

Following an empty 2021, Panday experimented with a more mature theme of extramarital affairs with Gehraiyaan. However, the film received extremely negative reviews, largely overshadowing Panday’s performance on screen with Deepika Padukone and Siddhant Chaturvedi.

Ladies hardly ever get an opportunity to establish themselves as performers in commercial films dominated by the male lead, as was the case with Ananya, according to Bala, who also notes that poorly written characters also double up in the trolling department. Liger was of no assistance at all. She will need some time to recover in the South.”

It is crucial to pay close attention to your brand and how you portray yourself. People don’t take Ananya seriously; they just troll her. The source emphasises that for an actor, it all comes down to winning over the audience. “Everyone knows that she needs to hone her talent more, and that she gets favours from a certain lobby of people, that’s why she is getting the work that comes her way,” the insider says.

Speaking of Ananya, how far can one push a child star and exert pressure on viewers? You can only go so far in the industry with the support of a certain group of people. After that, talent is required to advance. Talking without talent or being preoccupied with vacation activities that make you look like a meme is not serious. The insider continues, “Her branding is not becoming established.

At seven o’clock, Raj Babbar’s daughter learnt of his liaison with Smita Patil. “I shouldn’t tell my mother about this.”

Raj Babbar left his wife, Nadira, to marry Smita Patil in 1983. His daughter Juhi Babbar has recalled the time in a new interview.
Actor Raj Babbar was already married and had two children when he began his relationship with fellow actor, Smita Patil. The affair and the ensuing marriage saw a lot of controversy, given how it began. Raj Babbar’s daughter, former actor Juhi Babbar, has now opened up on the time and how she came to know about the relationship when she was just 7 years old.

Juhi Babbar on Raj Babbar and Smita Patil

In an interview with Lehren Retro, Juhi recalled how Smita Patil made a conscious effort to connect with Raj’s two children – Juhi and her brother, Arya. “My father talked and explained his marriage with Smita Patil to me when I was barely seven years old, and that’s why my memories of Smita ji are very different. She went out of her way to do things for me. I think she also had this thing that we are the kids of the person who is most special to her, and so we are special to her as well. She would show us a lot of love, always bringing us gifts when she travelled, and she would ensure that at home, we were served the food that we liked. These small memories are nice, but unfortunately, there aren’t many memories,” she said.

Juhi said she was conflicted about her impression of Smita at the time because the actor was always nice to us, but she could see that the marriage had shaken up her own family, particularly her mother, Nadira. “As a child, I knew this is the lady my father wants to be with, and he wants to make her his wife. I could see Smita making an effort towards me and my little brother, but I also knew that this was disturbing the unit that used to be, and that my mother was unhappy about it. I had that understanding—that aunty (Smita) was being so good to me, but when I go home, I shouldn’t share this with my mother.”

Raj Babbar and Smita Patil’s marriage

Smita Patil and Raj Babbar met on the sets of their 1982 film Bheegi Palkein. Raj left Nadira to marry Smita the following year. Their son, actor Prateik Babbar, was born in November 1986. However, Smita Patil died soon after from childbirth complications at the age of 31. Raj Babbar got back together with Nadira a few years later.

Juhi Babbar made her film debut with Kash Aap Hamare Hote opposite Sonu Nigam in 2003. She worked in a handful of films over the next few years before taking a hiatus to do TV. In 2023, she returned to films with supporting roles in films like Faraaz and Farrey. She is married to actor Anup Soni.
