Last night, Shakun Batra’s Gehraiyaan conducted its first in-person promotional event in Mumbai. All of the performers were present and serving glances to the flashing cameras, as is customary. Ananya Panday was spotted wearing a brown bandeau-style criss-cross crop top with high-waisted beige leggings similar to those featured on Urbanic.
The attire looked Gen-Z trendy, but even Ananya immediately realized that it wouldn’t be appropriate for the windy Mumbai weather.
The 23-year-old starlet is seen fighting to stay warm in the footage shot by Viral Bhayani. Siddhant is the one who ultimately provides his jacket to Ananya, who insists on wearing it until the crew departs for a more comfortable indoor environment.
The present weather circumstances are almost always a top influence when we choose our attire for the day. We’re not fashion bloggers who insist on wearing a coat when it’s 30 degrees outside, and we don’t encourage wearing a bikini when it’s minus 15. The marketing outfit for Ananya fell into the latter category.
While we would like to point out that Mumbai does not face the same level of cold as New Delhi or Shimla, the temperature change is still a chance for the people who live there, right?
To be honest, the actress looks adorable in the ensemble. Perhaps no one anticipated a spontaneous picture shoot in the open air. A cropped jacket, on the other hand, would not be a bad choice for this style. That’s something we’d do as well!
However, given Ananya’s struggle to remain warm, we believe this is not a good precedent to set. We, as women, should not be influenced by celebrities who are more concerned with looking beautiful in front of the camera than with their comfort.
Netizens also pointed out that the actress should’ve considered the weather before choosing a certain outfit.
