Chunkey Pandey on Ananya Pandey: “My daughter is a born actor”

Ananya Pandey was spotted at the airport after director Puneet Malhotra last week, who will be directing the sequel to the massively popular  ‘Student of the Year’ (2012). Pandey is rumored to be one of hero Tiger Shroff’s leading ladies. Dad Chunkey is also quite proud of her, and reveals that his daughter wouldn’t have been born, if it was not to be an actor.

Chunkey is tight lipped about his daughter’s Bollywood debut, not confirming if she indeed is being launched in ‘Student of the Year 2’, but does say that she has been training and auditioning for quite some time now. “My daughter is a born actor. She wouldn’t have been born if she wasn’t an actor,” as according to Mirror.

On visiting Ananya on the sets, and being introduced as her father, Chunkey said, “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. My father Dr Sharad Panday was an accomplished heart surgeon. One day, at a function, someone mentioned that he was actor Chunky Panday’s dad. He told me that was the proudest moment of his life. When I’m introduced as my kids’ father, it will be my proudest moment too.”

‘Student of the Year’ launched Alia Bhatt, Varun Dhawan, and Sidharth Malhotra.
