Meanwhile, on the work front, Ananya is basking in the success of her Netflix film ‘CTRL’.
In the film, Ananya plays Nella Awasthi, an influencer who, after a painful breakup, turns to Artificial Intelligence (AI) to erase her ex-boyfriend Joe from her life.
Recently, in an interview with ANI, director Vikramaditya Motwane shared what made him choose the ‘Gehraiyaan’ actress as the perfect fit for the role. When asked why he believed Ananya was the ideal choice, Motwane said he was looking for someone who could connect with today’s generation, someone who is young, someone who is “internet savvy,” and also someone who “gets trolled a little bit.”
“I saw her performance in ‘Gehraiyaan’ and really liked it. She was so special in that film — so unique and so present. I loved it. So, the moment the script was ready, it was a no-brainer to approach her. I wanted someone young, someone social media savvy, internet savvy, and Instagram savvy, who has a strong presence, you know? Someone who comes across as youthful and a youth icon. She also, in a way, gets trolled a little bit, and maybe that played a part in it. But mainly, I just love her as an actress,” he said. (ANI)
