As the video continues to circulate widely, neither Karan Johar nor Ananya Panday has spoken about the incident or responded to the ongoing discussions. Because of this, the exact intention behind the gesture remains unclear. Most of the conversation online is based only on what people feel or assume after watching the video.
On the work front, Ananya Panday is preparing to return as Bella Bae Chowdhary in the second season of Call Me Bae, which will stream on Amazon Prime Video. The new season will follow her character as she deals with her rising fame after starting her own news show. Along with her professional journey, her personal life will also take center stage, including a complicated love triangle involving her ex husband and her boss.
The show will also introduce Shruti Haasan in an important role as Bae’s sister, adding more drama and depth to the story. The upcoming season promises more emotions, changing relationships and a fresh mystery as the character tries to balance work, love and personal struggles.
