Ananya Panday seems to have a unique way of promoting her films on social media.

Have a look at the Instagram post.

Ananya Panday promotes 'Khaali Peeli' TV premiere by holding an insect

While the young actor is known to keep giving her fans funny glimpses of her personal and professional life on social media, Ananya Panday seems to have overdone herself in her latest post. Getting a picture of herself ed in a traditional outfit, the actor seems to be holding an insect that looks like a cockroach and striking a pose with her tongue out, as if she is about to eat that insect. With an unusual post such as this, the actor also made sure to provide an explanation behind this post.

She wrote in the caption of her post, “I swear I can explainnnnn!!! 🙈🪳 Actually just watch the world television premiere of Khaali Peeli tonight at 8pm on @zeecinema 😏🤪 (ps. no insects were harmed during this shoot)”. While the picture was posted with a purpose to promote her new film Khaali Peeli, which is all set to make its television premiere, the post ended up repulsing many of her followers, who posted their reactions in the comments.

Most of them did not seem to enjoy the fact that Ananya was holding an insect and looked like she was about to eat it. While most of them felt disgusted, there were also some who saw the humour behind the post and were seen laughing.
