Mumbai Mirror that she was 'born to be an actor.'
Ananya is the elder of Chunky and Bhavana Panday. "My daughter is a born actor. She wouldn't have been born if she wasn't an actor," Chunky Panday told
Mumbai Mirror.
Ananya Panday has been trending on and off since a few months - a) For her much-anticipated Bollywood debut and b) Last November,
she made her high society debut at Paris' Le Bal. Of Ananya's debut at the Paris Ball, Chunky Panday had told NDTV, "Waltzing with Ananya was great fun. Ananya made me feel very proud." His nephew Ahaan also attended the Paris ball.
Just last week, Chunky Panday and Ananya were photographed at the screening of Tiger Shroff and Disha Patani's
Baaghi 2. Ananya, looking chic in flared denims and an off-shoulder black top, smiled for the paparazzi. But, her dad photobombed her pretty pictures. "
Professional photobomber," he captioned a collage on Instagram.
On being asked whether the doting dad will visit her daughter on her film sets, Chunky Panday told
Mumbai Mirror, "I would rather see her on the screen but if she invites me on the sets I'll surely go. I wouldn't want to break her chain of thought."
Shah Rukh and Gauri Khan's daughter Suhana and Sanjay and Maheep Kapoor's daughter Shanaya are two of Ananya Panday's close friends. They are often spotted together at fashion shows and other events and the trio stole the spotlight at SRK's Alibaug birthday bash.
