Ananya Panday reveals she was 'terrified' of Sara Ali Khan at school: 'She would say anything, she is muhfat'

Ananya Pandaywho is basking in the success of her recently released OTT film ‘CTRL‘, recently announced Sara Ali Khan was her senior in high school, but they weren’t as close as they are now. She was actually afraid of her.
During an interview with Mid-day, Ananya talked about her friendship with Sara Ali Khan. She shared: “Sara is outspoken now, but at school she was even more outspoken; so she was always this myth. I would actually hide from her at school because I was terrified. When she walked down a certain flight of stairs, I would walk down another kick off, because she would say anything. For example, she is still muhfat, but at school she was even more muhfat.”
She went on to say that although they had a few encounters at school, nothing strengthened their friendship. “We were doing a play together at school and she was the main character in the play and I was like holding her umbrella or something. I was sitting in the back and she wouldn’t bother to know my name. So she’ll be like ‘yeah girl , come here”. I don’t think she even knew that because my name started with A. Now, when I told her, she said, ‘What nonsense, I treated you so well,’ but she did. I don’t even know my name at school,” the actress added:
Ananya revealed that they became good friends after joining Bollywood. “We’ve actually become friends now. She debuted a year before me and she was very welcoming. She would always say, ‘Let’s go to lunch,’ and she really made an effort to be friends.”
Sara Ali Khan made her debut in Bollywood in 2018 with film ‘Kedarnath‘, while Ananya made hers in the film ‘Student of the Year 2‘.
On the work front, Ananya will next be seen in ‘Shankara‘ with Akshay Kumar.
