The actor, who debuted with Karan Johar’s production Student of the Year 2, earned critical acclaim for her performance in Shakun Batradirected Gehraiyaan from the same banner.
While fans noticed a shift in her choices post Gehraiyaan, Pandey called it a ‘natural progression’, whether it is her latest film Kho Gaye Hum Kahan from Zoya Akhtar’s banner or her upcoming cyberthriller Control by Vikramaditya Motwane “I’ve always wanted people to take me seriously as an actor. It’s not that it (choices) changed after Gehraiyaan. I’m in my 20s, I’m growing up and there are different things that I’m relating to. There are different kinds of stories I want to do.
It’s simultaneous with my growth as a person. My choices are also changing. It’s a ripple effect,” the 25-year-old actor said. “I’m not making any conscious decisions. I’ve my wishlist and I’m secretly manifesting who I want to work with but nothing works like good work. I’m trying to focus on that,” Pandey added.
