Magic that happened at the right time”—that’s how Ananya Panday describes Kho Gaye Hum Kahan (2023). While Arjun Varain Singh’s directorial venture is winning praise, Panday’s tender performance as Ahana, whose self-worth takes a beating when her boyfriend leaves her, is being particularly talked about. The actor admits the character was close to her real self, and that made it tougher. She reflects, “Sometimes, you are open to [a script] because you are feeling similar things in life. Yet, it’s tough to play out those emotions because it’s hurting you. I could strongly relate to Ahana. Now that the film has released, I feel it’s not just my story, but almost every girl has felt the same way. They are strong in front of their friends and families, but if a relationship doesn’t work out, it can affect their self-worth. I’m happy that through this part, I could reach out to many girls.”
