Ananya Panday on her friendship with Sara Ali Khan

In a conversation with Mid Day, Ananya Panday revealed that in school, Sara Ali Khan was very outspoken and Ananya would actually hide from her because she used to be terrified. 

"If she was walking down a certain staircase, I would walk down a certain (another) staircase. Because she would say anything. Like she is moohfat anyways like now also she says but in school, she was even more moohfat and she used to really say anything. So, I used to be like she is going to say something about me," Ananya added. 

Sara Ali Khan did not know Ananya Panday's name

Recounting her school days with Sara, Panday further added that they played together in school and the Kedarnath actress was the main in the play. Ananya used to hold her umbrella and she wouldn’t bother to know her name. 

"She will be like say ‘ae girl’ come here. I don’t think because my name started with A, she didn’t even know that. Now when I tell her she says, ‘What rubbish I treated you so well’, but she did not know my name also in school," Ananya recalled.
