However, once this video came out and has been circulating, the said influencer who goes by the name of Ananya Dwivedi went on to comment on the video saying, “That’s ME! And I don’t understand why would someone deny a selfie when you’re already surrounded by cameras and the only reason influencers like me were called is to promote HER song!

This went on to spark a debate among the netizens where the majority would also mark Pannu for her actions saying things like ‘ahankaar zyada tikta nahi’, ‘very arrogant’, ‘she is a junior Jaya Bachchan’ and so on. While some defended her actions as well saying ‘the host was speaking and hence maybe she thought it wasn’t the right time’ among other things.
