Ananya Panday: Fashion, fitness are part of my routine, but mental wellness is what ties it all together
"Mental health, 100 percent. You can look amazing on the outside, but if you're not okay on the inside, none of it matters. - Ananya Panday"

Mumbai, Aug 20

Bollywood actress Ananya Panday shared that for her mental health is top priority, as it is the foundation for everything else, including how she presents herself.

Talking about what defines her personal philosophy the most, fitness, fashion or mental health, Ananya told IANS: “ Mental health, 100 percent. You can look amazing on the outside, but if you're not okay on the inside, none of it matters.”

She added: “I’ve learned over the years that taking time for yourself, whether it’s therapy, journaling, going for a walk, or just disconnecting from social media, is so important.”

For the actress, fashion is also therapy.

“I spend so much time in my closet, putting looks together, playing with new combinations, and just enjoying the process of dressing up. It’s my creative outlet and a space where I feel confident and completely myself.”

“Fashion and fitness are part of my routine, but mental wellness is what ties it all together. When I feel good mentally, I show up better, in my work, in my style, and in how I carry myself,” said the actress, who has hosted Airbnb’s Original experience.

What's her favourite part of the experience, the actress said that it is all about fashion and glam, curated by her and her “amazing A-team”.

“It honestly feels like a dream come true for anyone who loves style and self-expression. The experience takes place at a stunning Airbnb in Delhi, reimagined as my personal fashion studio for the day and I can’t wait to welcome guests into my world.”

The actress said that people can take a look at the kind of looks she loves, how she gets ready for shoots, and what fashion means to Ananya.

“My stylist, Ami Patel, will help you try on some of my signature outfits, followed by glam sessions with my hair and makeup pros, Aanchal Morwani and Riddhima Khubchandani. Once you’re all styled and feeling fabulous, we’ll head into a professional shoot with me and Rahul Jhangiani to capture your glow,” said the actress, who has Chand Mera Dil and Tu Meri Main Tera, Main Tera Tu Meri lined up for release.

While I appreciate her message, it's easy to talk about mental health when you have access to therapists, stylists, and personal teams. For ordinary Indians, mental health care is still a luxury we can't afford.

Love that she calls fashion therapy! As someone who grew up in Mumbai, I completely relate - putting together a good outfit can really boost your mood and confidence. It's not shallow, it's self-care 💁‍♀️

Good for her! Our generation needs to break the stigma around mental health. My parents still think therapy is for "mad people" but young stars like Ananya can help change these outdated attitudes.

The Airbnb experience sounds amazing! Would love to see how Bollywood stars actually get ready. It's great that she's creating something interactive for fans beyond just social media posts.

Journaling and disconnecting from social media - such simple but powerful advice. In today's digital age, we all need to hear this more often. Mental health should be taught in schools across India.
