Mumbai, Aug 20 (NationPress) Bollywood star Ananya Panday emphasized that her mental wellness is of utmost importance, serving as the cornerstone for everything else, including her public image.
When discussing what forms the basis of her personal philosophy—whether it’s fitness, fashion, or mental health—Ananya revealed to IANS: “Mental health, without a doubt. You might look stunning on the outside, but if you’re struggling internally, none of it holds value.”
She remarked, “Over the years, I've understood the significance of dedicating time to oneself—be it through therapy, journaling, enjoying a nature walk, or taking a break from social media.”
For Ananya, fashion also serves as a form of therapy.
“I spend countless hours in my wardrobe, mixing and matching outfits, exploring fresh styles, and simply relishing the experience of dressing up. It’s my creative sanctuary where I feel empowered and authentically me.”
“While fashion and fitness are vital components of my daily life, it’s my mental wellness that weaves everything together. When I’m mentally fit, I perform better in my career, express my style more effectively, and carry myself with confidence,” the actress shared, who has hosted Airbnb’s Original experience.
When asked about her favorite part of this experience, the actress stated that it revolves around fashion and glamour, uniquely curated by her and her “incredible A-team.”
“It genuinely feels like a dream for anyone passionate about style and self-expression. This experience unfolds in a breathtaking Airbnb in Delhi, transformed into my personal fashion studio for the day, and I can’t wait to invite guests into my universe.”
The actress mentioned that attendees can explore her favorite looks, understand her preparation for shoots, and discover what fashion signifies to her.
“My stylist, Ami Patel, will assist you in trying on some of my iconic outfits, followed by glam sessions with my makeup and hair experts, Aanchal Morwani and Riddhima Khubchandani. Once you’re styled and feeling fantastic, we will move into a professional shoot with me and Rahul Jhangiani to capture your radiance,” added the actress, who has Chand Mera Dil and Tu Meri Main Tera, Main Tera Tu Meri set for release.
