Ananya Panday, in a recent chat with Mid-day on `Sit With Hitlist,` opened up about her media training. She revealed that while Karan Johar, who launched her career with `The Student Of The Year 2,` didn’t provide much formal training, his only advice was to "be herself." She noted that today’s new generation of actors is much more media-savvy and better trained to handle public attention. On her relationship with `Gehraiyaan` co-star Siddhant Chaturvedi, when the latter took a jibe at her with his nepotism comment in an interview panel back in 2019, Ananya joked that he “probably wrote his comeback in a book and came prepared,” but stressed there’s no bad blood between them, highlighting their friendly rapport despite what the media portrayed of the fiasco.
