It is gripping from start to finish and is exceptionally well-made. @ananyapanday you beauty, your performance was outstanding. It made me quickly grab my phone and uninstall several apps. Congratulations team #CTRL."
In the film, Ananya plays Nella Awasthi, an influencer who, after a painful breakup, turns to Artificial Intelligence (Al) to erase her ex-boyfriend Joe from her life. While the story takes a thrilling turn with Al going out of control, Ananya shared how she handles breakups in real life.
