Early on in Kho Gaye Hum Kahaan, Ahana (Ananya Panday) steals glances at her phone, conspicuously placed away from her as she tries to get some work done. The music is ominous, and as it reaches a crescendo, Ahana gives in. She picks up her phone and scrolls through the profile of her ex-boyfriend’s probable new flame.
When I bring up this scene with Ananya, the actor is more than happy to delve into how these smaller moments in the script were the biggest draw for her. Kho Gaye… released late in December last year, and Ananya has been basking in all the praise she’s received for a performance that many have dubbed her best yet.
