Ananya Panday on women empowerment and safety

Ananya, while talking about the MeToo issue highlighted in her new series Call Me Bae stated that, “With great power comes great responsibility. It is very important for me to use my voice correctly. Sometimes, as an actress, I feel a little helpless because people say ‘Don’t get too political or don’t say that’ but I’ve realised when I work, it aligns with my moral and social beliefs. For instance, in Call Me Bae, I don’t want to give spoilers, but it gets into a zone that stands up for women, women empowerment and the MeToo issue. It is something that I may not have been fully able to speak about in real life because of various reasons. But, if I can do that through my work, I feel like that also has a large impact.”

She also said, “As an actor, I don’t think I will ever do something that goes against my beliefs as a human being, because I know the impact it has on people. Our country gets influenced easily. I get influenced so easily. I understand it and that’s why it is important to be aware of the work you put out there. I try to be as true to myself as possible. I am not one of those people who feels one has to speak about everything. I feel it is very important to stand up for something. I know what is important to me. Women’s safety in our country is very important to me so that is something I am very vocal about. It is important to find what is important to you and do it correctly. Putting things into action is what matters the most.”
