Why Ananya Panday felt uncomfortable shooting Liger with Vijay Deverakonda?

Ananya Panday
  • Chunky Panday opened up about experience of Ananya Panday in Liger.
  • She was initially hesitant to take on the role.
  • She thought she was too young for it.

Actor Chunky Panday recently opened up about his daughter Ananya Panday’s experience working on Liger, revealing that she was initially hesitant to take on the role. The 2022 film, which marked Vijay Deverakonda’s Bollywood debut, was Ananya’s first mainstream commercial film. However, according to her father, she felt “too young” for the project.

“When she asked me if she should do this film… she was thinking that she was too young for it. She said, ‘Papa, I am too young to do this.’ I said you do this; it’s a commercial, a big film but maybe she was right. She was too young to do it,” Chunky shared in an interview with Mashable India. He further added, “She was uncomfortable. She said maybe, I am too young for this. She was confused then.”

Following Liger’s failure at the box office, Chunky stopped advising Ananya on her career choices, especially after she took on Call Me Bae, which later earned her a Filmfare Award nomination. “From that day on, I never put any pressure on her. Maybe I was wrong. I am old school. I don’t know anything else,” he admitted.

Ananya was last seen in Netflix’s CTRL, earning critical acclaim. She will next star in Kesari Chapter 2 alongside Akshay Kumar.

Blake Lively again in legal trouble, PR firm files defamation lawsuit

Blake Lively
  • Blake Lively is facing legal trouble once again.
  • Jed Wallace of Street Relations accused her of defamation.
  • Wallace’s lawsuit seeks at least $7 million.

Blake Lively is facing legal trouble once again, this time over a defamation lawsuit filed by crisis management expert Jed Wallace of Street Relations. Wallace has accused the Gossip Girl star of unjustly dragging him into her ongoing legal battle with It Ends With Us director-actor Justin Baldoni. Filed in a Texas federal court, Wallace’s lawsuit seeks at least $7 million and a court order clearing his name of any wrongdoing.

The dispute began when Lively accused Wallace of assisting Baldoni’s team in orchestrating a smear campaign against her on social media. She claimed Wallace helped create fake content to attack her while defending Baldoni, allegedly influencing public opinion and generating negative media coverage.

Wallace, however, denies any involvement, stating that he has been falsely implicated in Lively’s sexual harassment and retaliation complaints. “Neither Wallace nor Street had anything to do with the alleged sexual harassment, retaliation, failure to investigate or aiding and abetting the alleged harassment or alleged retaliation. Neither could they have breached a contract with Lively because no such contract exists,” said Wallace’s attorney, Charles Babcock.

Lively’s legal team dismissed the lawsuit as retaliatory. “Another day, another state, another nine-figure lawsuit seeking to sue Ms. Lively ‘into oblivion’ for speaking out against sexual harassment and retaliation,” her lawyers stated. They added, “While this lawsuit will be dismissed, we are pleased that Mr. Wallace has finally emerged from the shadows, and that he too will be held accountable in federal court.”
