Deepika
Padukone
is
a
star.
So,
when
a
newbie
like
Ananya
Panday
gets
to
work
with
a
top
actress
like
her,
one
might
expect
the
former
to
get
intimidated
by
the
latter,
but
that
wasn't
the
case
with
the
Student
Of
The
Year
2
actress.
Singing
praises
of
Deepika,
with
whom
Ananya
will
share
screen
space
Shakun
Batra's
upcoming
domestic
noir,
the
Khaali
Peeli
actress
told
a
media
agency,
"She
(Deepika)
is
the
biggest
sweetheart.
As
beautiful
as
she
is
on
the
outside,
she
is
as
beautiful
on
the
inside.
She
is
one
of
the
nicest
and
warmest
people
ever.
She
is
literally
like
my
sister.
We
have
a
really
good
relationship."
Ananya
further
added
that
Deepika
has
done
a
really
good
job
in
making
her
feel
comfortable
on
set,
and
there
were
no
intimidating
vibes
between
them.
She
further
added,
"We
did
workshops
together,
too.
She
is
a
very
caring
person."
In
the
same
interview,
Ananya
also
asserted
that
apart
from
Deepika,
she
also
looks
up
to
actress
Kareena
Kapoor
Khan.
Interestingly,
Ananya
was
recently
seen
interacting
with
Bebo
on
her
radio
show
What
Women
Want.
Speaking
about
her
tete-a-tete
with
Kareena,
Ananya
said,
"One
of
the
biggest
compliments
for
me
was
when
Kareena
herself
said,
'if
there
had
to
be
a
Poo
now,
I
think
you
would
be
able
to
play
it'.
I
am
just
hoping
that
Karan
saw
it
or
read
it
somewhere.
That's
a
dream
role.
She
was
so
iconic
for
all
of
us
while
we
were
growing
up."
With
respect
to
work,
Ananya
is
in
a
happy
space
as
she
has
interesting
projects
in
her
kitty.
Apart
from
Shakun
Batra's
next,
she
will
be
seen
in
Puri
Jagannadh's
Fighter,
which
also
casts
South
superstar
Vijay
Deverakonda
in
the
lead
role.
