Ananya Panday, riding high on the success of her latest film Kesari 2, was recently seen enjoying a casual lunch outing in Mumbai. The actress, who has garnered praise for her portrayal of Dilreet Gill—a departure from her usual bubbly roles—seems to be embracing both personal and professional growth. The film is performing well at the box office, approaching the ₹50 crore mark domestically, and marking a major milestone in Ananya’s career.
To celebrate the film’s positive reception, Ananya stepped out mid-week for a laid-back lunch date. She was accompanied by her close friend Suhana Khan and her rumored boyfriend, Walker Blanco. Interestingly, the three did not arrive together. Walker entered and exited the venue separately, likely to keep the buzz around his relationship with Ananya under wraps.
Despite the outing’s low-key vibe, it caught the attention of the paparazzi. Ananya kept things stylish yet relaxed in a light ganji paired with trousers, while Walker sported a casual white tee, brown cargos, and a baseball cap. Though briefly startled by the shutterbugs, he made a quick getaway, maintaining the couple’s discreet approach to public appearances.
As Kesari 2 continues to climb the charts and Ananya embraces more nuanced roles, fans seem eager to see both her evolving film choices and her off-screen connections take center stage.
