In a recent conversation, Ananya Panday shared her thoughts on the journeys of her friends Suhana Khan and Shanaya Kapoor as they begin their Bollywood careers. While Ananya made her debut first, she feels her friends are better prepared for the challenges ahead. “They know how to deal with the media and come well-prepared to set,” she mentioned, reflecting on the difference in their experiences. Ananya acknowledged that her own debut felt less prepared compared to the strong foundation her friends now have.

Ananya, known for her role in Kho Gaye Hum Kahan, expressed happiness about her own journey, noting how audience preferences have evolved since the pandemic. She highlighted the growing importance of OTT platforms in shaping the film industry, which has influenced how stories are told and received. Despite the changes, Ananya remains optimistic and excited about her upcoming projects, including the web series Call Me Bae season 2 and the cyber thriller CTRL, set to release on October 4.

As for her friends, Suhana made her debut in Zoya Akhtar’s The Archies in 2023, while Shanaya is gearing up for the pan-India film Vrushabha. Ananya is supportive of their endeavours, emphasizing that each of their paths is unique and filled with potential.

During his concert in Manchester for the Dil-Luminati Tour, singer Diljit Dosanjh shared a touching moment by introducing his family to fans for the first time. As he performed, he bowed before a woman, embraced her, and proudly announced, “By the way, this is my mom.” The emotional connection was palpable as his mother became teary-eyed during the heartfelt hug. He also introduced his sister, further sharing his family with the audience.

Diljit is known for keeping his personal life private and has rarely spoken about his family. Speculation surrounding his marital status has been persistent. However, Diljit has never publicly confirmed these claims, preferring to maintain a level of privacy around his loved ones. His close friend, Ammy Virk, recently emphasized the importance of family privacy, noting that many public figures wish to keep their families out of the spotlight.

After wrapping up his UK tour, Diljit will begin the Indian leg of his tour, starting on October 26 at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Delhi. Fans can also look forward to seeing him in the upcoming film Border 2, alongside Sunny Deol and Varun Dhawan, with filming set to begin in November.
