Deepika Padukone and Ananya Panday are gearing up for their upcoming movie Gehraiyaan which will also star Siddhant Chaturvedi and Dhairya Karwa in lead roles. Ahead of that, the actors have been doing the promotional rounds for the film and in a recent interview, Deepika Padukone took a hilarious dig at her Ananya Panday for using her phone between shots.
During an interview with Hindustan Times, Deepika, Ananya and director Shakun Batra were asked who uses their phone between shots. Deepika and Shakun pointed at Ananya. In her defence, the actress said, “I also work on my phone.” To which Deepika took a hilarious dig at her and said, “PM hai, duniya chalati hai (She is the PM, she runs the world).” Shakun added, “Pura Insta inhi pe chal raha hai (The entire Instagram is working due to her).”

But that was not it, Deepika and Shakun also revealed that Ananya is the one to break character and laugh during intense scenes, Padukone said, “Ananya is the most likely to laugh.” Giving an example, Shakun said, “This is absolutely true. We were filming the last scene of the film and it was also the last day of the shoot. Here, Ananya is laughing in the shot which was of a serious scene. I told her after the scene ‘I’m looking at the wide shot and you’re laughing’. And she’s like ‘I was laughing for the take’ and I said ‘You can’t be laughing for the take because it’s a serious scene’.” But Ananya tried to defend herself saying that ‘No, no I was acting’. Shakun hilariously called her ‘unprofessional’, “And then she’s trying to justify that ‘No, no I was acting’ and I was like ‘Don’t lie’. Because she’s just not laughing in the take but repeatedly laughing looking at the crew. So that was going on, very unprofessional.”
Gehraiyaan will stream on Amazon Prime Video from February 11.
