Ananya Panday on accidentally leaking numbers
While speaking about cyber threats, Ananya was asked whether her number is not on any database anywhere. She stated that, “No, I leaked my own number once by mistake. It happened when I was doing an interview. It is now changed because of some reason my phone got taken away. There was a press conference and the interview was starting. Some reporters came and asked me for my number to do journalist things and ask questions and all. So, then I gave the number but the interview had started. And they put it on YouTube with my number. Then, it got leaked.”
Ananya further said, “Once I leaked Suhana’s number by mistake. I was FaceTiming her. And then I was like, Suhana is not picking up. I screenshotted the picture and I put it on Instagram and her number was there. Then she (Suhana Khan) called me, ‘Listen, my number got hacked’ and I said, ‘Oh my God. What happened Suhana? That’s such a crazy story’. But then someone told her that I did it.”
