Ananya Panday seems to have found her footing in Bollywood. She debuted in B-town with the movie Student Of The Year 2 and gained a lot of popularity. Ananya was last seen in Gehraiyaan. Ananya is now gearing up for her upcoming Pan-India, movie, Fighter, which marks the Bollywood debut of South superstar Vijay Deverakonda.
Ananya is also a social media star. As per reports in Pink Villa, in a recent interview with Cosmopolitan, Ananya was asked whether her relationship with social media has changed over the years. The actress said, “Honestly, because of my recent discovery of the Mute feature on Instagram, I choose what I want to see and absorb. So at the moment, my relationship with social media is pretty good, because I’ve learned how to navigate it. It does get overwhelming being on it… But it’s all about learning. And once you realize the truth, it becomes all about acting on it.”
When asked further about “muting” certain Instagram accounts, Ananya revealed she uses the feature instead of blocking or unfollowing someone. Explaining why she prefers doing that, Ananya said, “We end up spending so much time on social media, for work or fun, without realizing what we’re feeding and nourishing our minds with. I believe that we need to make a conscious choice and switch—it may work for you or it may not. For me, it definitely has. We need to choose what information we allow into our lives because we may think that it won’t affect us, but it could in a way that we may not even realize. And that could spill over into our relationships, or cause unnecessary negativity. So rather than blocking or unfollowing, I choose to Mute accounts for a certain period of time until I am ready to allow them back into my life.”
