Ananya Panday has credited Akshay Kumar for defining a period of comedies in the Hindi cinema.
ETimes recently invited her for an interview, where she expressed what the celebrity means to her, followed by opening about his distinguished persona.
“Akshay Sir has defined an era in cinema which, by far, has been my most favorite. Hera Pheri, Welcome, Bhool Bhulaiyaa – they've been the most iconic films for me. I can watch them 100 times on repeat. They've made me laugh so much,” the budding actor said.
Moving on to his working attitude, she continued, “He is the most professionally involved person I've come across. Remembers everything, gives fun ideas. I've even heard from my dad that he keeps the set fresh and light, never takes himself too seriously.”
Ananya’s father, Chunky Panday, has starred alongside Akshay in the Housefull franchise, where he earned his popular “I’m a joking” quote from.
He was also called for cameos in De Dana Dan and Tees Maar Khan.
On the other hand, rumors about Ananya signing a movie with the superstar have been buzzing around for a while.
It has been reported that they’re working on a production that’s centered on lawyer C. Sankaran Nair’s life.
