A new Koffee With Karan 9 promo brings actor Ananya Panday and entrepreneur Ananya Birla together on the couch, with Shanaya Kapoor making a surprise appearance. The preview, shared by host Karan Johar on Saturday, November 14, offers a glimpse of a playful conversation and a phone-call game that takes an unexpected turn.
Ananya Panday’s phone call gets an unexpected answer
During the segment, guests are asked to call a celebrity friend and get them to respond with a line for the show. Ananya Panday attempts to reach Aditya Roy Kapur, but Kartik Aaryan answers the call instead. Ananya Birla uses the moment to tease her co-guest about the people she has been calling.
The exchange is presented as light-hearted banter within the game. It should not be read as confirmation of anyone’s current relationship status. The promo’s focus is the guests’ reactions and the quick humour that follows the unexpected answer.
Shanaya Kapoor joins the conversation
The preview also features Shanaya Kapoor, who joins the two guests for a challenge built around finding a line that could work in very different settings. The three share an easy rapport, giving the upcoming episode a mix of friendship, celebrity references and comic timing.
When to watch Koffee With Karan 9 episode
The episode featuring Ananya Panday and Ananya Birla is scheduled for Wednesday, November 18, 2026, at 7 PM on The Peacock Hub via JioHotstar. Season 9 is the final season of the Karan Johar-hosted talk show, as confirmed by JioStar’s official announcement.
The new promo details and episode timing have also been reported by The Times of India and Hindustan Times.
