BOMBAY TIMES (June 12, 2019)

Ananya Panday is quickly becoming the latest favourite for brand endorsements. The stylish young star has been signed on as the brand ambassador for Perk, which stands for youth, fun and mischief. The actress was a natural choice for the brand as she brings alive the brand purpose to life effortlessly.

Recently, when Anurag Kashyap was directing Ananya for a brand endorsement, he was taken aback when she refused to report for the shoot the next day. Citing an excuse about attending a yoga class, Ananya said she would not be available, much to Anurag’s surprise. The director, known for his gritty thrillers and obviously not used to being refused, then decided to have some masti at the expense of Ananya by using a video byte of her saying, ‘Sorry, not available’ to make a funny meme video. How will Ananya react to this meme? Will Anurag convince her to report for the shoot?
