Bollywood actress Ananya Panday continues to make waves internationally. After turning heads with her chic appearance at Paris Fashion Week, she recently shared a delightful fan moment with Hollywood star Pedro Pascal. But what truly took the internet by storm wasn’t just their meeting – it was Pedro’s striking handbag that sent social media into a frenzy. The closing day of Paris Fashion Week saw luxury house Chanel host the much-anticipated debut collection of its new artistic director, Matthieu Blazy.
The grand event, attended by over 2,300 guests, brought together an impressive line-up of global stars including Sofia Coppola, Tilda Swinton, Penélope Cruz, Nicole Kidman, Margot Robbie, Carrie Coon, Marion Cotillard, and Pedro Pascal himself. Representing India with her signature poise, Ananya Panday attended the show as Chanel’s Indian brand ambassador.
Several photos and videos from the event have since gone viral, showing Ananya and Pedro engaging in a warm exchange before posing together for pictures. Their easy camaraderie, captured by fans and paparazzi alike, quickly became one of the most talked-about moments from Fashion Week.

Social media users, however, couldn’t get over Pedro’s fashion-forward accessory – a sleek, structured handbag that drew comparisons to Joey Tribbiani’s iconic purse from ‘Friends’. Comments flooded the posts, with fans humorously dubbing it “Joey’s bag.” One user wrote, “Joey was right… it’s a fashion for men too,” while another quipped, “Pedro Pascal with Joey’s purse — iconic.” Others praised Ananya’s global rise, with a comment reading, “So proud of Ananya! She’s proving every hater wrong.”
Another fan joked, “Seeing Ananya with Pedro wasn’t on my 2025 bingo card,” while many gushed over the unlikely crossover: “She’s so lucky to meet Pedro Pascal!” Some even joked, “The world is finally ready for Rachel Green’s fashion sense.”
In addition to the Chanel show, Ananya also attended the BoF 500 Gala at the Shangri-La Hotel in Paris on October 4, held alongside the Paris Fashion Week Spring-Summer 2026 celebrations.
Meanwhile, on the film front, Ananya was last seen in ‘Kesari Chapter 2: The Untold Story of Jallianwala Bagh’, co-starring Akshay Kumar and R. Madhavan, which earned both critical and audience appreciation.
She has wrapped up ‘Tu Meri Main Tera, Main Tera Tu Meri’, marking her second collaboration with Kartik Aaryan. It has been directed by Sameer Vidhwans and produced by Dharma Entertainment. The film, also featuring Neena Gupta and Jackie Shroff, is slated for release in December this year.
Next, Ananya will star in ‘Chand Mera Dil’ opposite Lakshya, and return for ‘Call Me Bae Season 2’. Meanwhile, Pedro Pascal was last seen in Marvel’s ‘The Fantastic Four: First Steps’ and Celine Song’s ‘The Materialists’, continuing his golden run in Hollywood.
