Watch: Ananya Panday Shares Her First-Ever Holiday Vlog From Stunning Maldives Vacation
Ananya Panday’s first-ever Maldives vlog served as a dreamy mix of island adventures, luxury escapes, and candid moments that showcased her fun, carefree side.
Bollywood actress Ananya Panday, known for her chic fashion sense and infectious screen presence, just gave her millions of followers a serious case of wanderlust by dropping a stunning video from her recent getaway to the Maldives. Calling it her “first attempt at making a vlog,” the Bollywood diva shared a beautifully compiled reel that captured the essence of a perfect island vacation, proving she might have a future in vlogging after all!
Captioned, “My first attempt at making a vlog but had the bestest time ever at @waldorfastoriamaldives,” the video is a minute-and-a-half-long journey through her luxurious and fun-filled holiday.

The clip, set to the soothing track ‘Suraj Ki Baahon Mein’ from ‘Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara’, has already garnered immense love from fans and industry peers, with likes from Malaika Arora and loving comments from her mother Bhavana Pandey and family friend Maheep Kapoor.
The vlog kicked off with a relatable “Good morning” as Ananya woke up makeup-free in adorable cheetah-print pyjamas. With a playful “Khul ja sim sim,” she unveiled a breathtaking view of the turquoise Maldivian waters from her overwater villa. The luxury of her stay at the Waldorf Astoria was immediately apparent as she showed off a glass floor panel in her room, excitedly pointing out the “little fishies” swimming below her feet.
Ananya’s day was a perfect blend of indulgence and activity. We see her cycling through lush green pathways to get “some breakie,” where she playfully eyed a tray of delicious-looking croissants. But balance is key, as the very next shot showed her on a Pilates reformer, comically captioning it, “Ok now burning off those chocolate croissants.”
Her adventurous side came out as she almost crashed her bicycle, laughing it off with the text, “Ok almost crashed but everything is ok.”
The video is packed with serene and thrilling moments. From her “favouritest activity” of reading a book by the infinity pool to walking barefoot in the crystal-clear waves, Ananya truly soaked in the tranquil vibe.
The highlight for any ocean lover would be her underwater adventures. The actress was seen snorkelling in the vibrant coral reefs, even captioning a clip of her swimming alongside a majestic sea turtle with “I made a best friend”. The vlog also featured incredible sightings of a pod of dolphins and, later at night, beautiful eagle rays.
The evenings were just as magical. Ananya shared a clip of herself enjoying a spa session, painting marine life in an art class, and watching a spectacular sunset that she felt was just for her. In a candid moment, she paused her night-time photoshoot because she spotted a shark, showcasing her easily distracted and fun-loving nature.
From being a self-proclaimed “sushi monster” to admiring her own makeup in the windy island air, the vlog was a personal and charming look into her blissful escape.
Meanwhile, on the work front, the Bollywood actress is all set to appear next in ‘Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri’ alongside Kartik Aaryan. Directed by Sameer Vidhwans, the film will hit theatres on December 31, this year.
