Ananya Panday recently celebrated her birthday, and the occasion was made extra special by a heartfelt gesture from her boyfriend, Walker Blanco. The American model confirmed their relationship with a touching birthday tribute on social media. In a viral video, he can be seen singing “Happy Birthday” as Ananya blows out the candles on her cake, surrounded by loved ones.
The birthday festivities included close friends and family, with Ananya’s parents, Chunky Panday and Bhavana Pandey, in attendance, along with her friends Deeya Shroff, Karan Kothari, Navya Nanda, Alizeh Agnihotri, and, of course, Blanco. Orry, as he is affectionately known, shared a series of snapshots and clips from the celebration, showcasing the joyful moments.
Earlier in the day, Walker took to his Instagram stories to post a candid picture of Ananya, likely from one of their outings. He captioned it with a sweet message: “Happy birthday, beautiful. You are so special. I love you, Anniee!” This marks a significant moment for the couple, as it’s the first time Walker has publicly expressed his feelings for Ananya, following previous supportive posts, such as when her film CTRL was released.
On the professional front, Ananya has had a remarkable year with two successful projects under her belt. She made her debut on OTT platforms with the web series Call Me Bae and starred in Vikramaditya Motwane’s film CTRL. Excitement is building for her next project, Shankara, which is anticipated to showcase her versatility as an actress.
