A few weeks ago, actor Chunky Pandey's daughter Ananya, 18, became one of the top trends on the Internet, courtesy choreographer-director Farah Khan. Chunky's wife Bhavana had shared a picture of Ananya on Instagram and in the comment,
Farah Khan wrote that she was 'too lovely' to be related to Chunky Pandey. "Do a DNA test please. She's too lovely to be Chunky's daughter," wrote Farah Khan. Her comments made some people laugh but, she was mostly trolled. However, Chunky Pandey laughs over Farah's comment and told
Hindustan Times, "Farah is a darling friend and I know what she meant. She actually called Ananya beautiful. So I take that as a compliment," adding that he, Farah and Sajid Khan have a dark sense of humour and they often crack such jokes about each other.
This was the picture which Bhavana shared.
