One other user also said, "It’s surprising because Ananya seems very health conscious. My guess is that maybe she does it to decrease her appetite. Perhaps as a way to keep her weight down? Or maybe she just picked it up during her party days pre-debut, but TBH I swear smoking cigarettes isn’t really a thing anymore with Gen Z."
Many of Ananya's fans also joined in on the discussion and defended her, asking people not to shame her for smoking just because she is a woman.
On Tuesday, Ananya Panday attended the mehendi ceremony of her cousin along with Deanne Panday and Chikki Panday. Others present at the ceremony were Atul Agnihotri and Alvira Agnihotri, Chunky Panday, and Bhavana Pandey. The ceremony was hosted at Sohail Khan’s home.
