What Ananya Panday Said
During a chat with NIF Global, Ananya Panday revealed her reason for choosing Gauri Khan, “Honestly, for me, it was a sentimental decision to have Gauri Khan do my house because I have grown up around her and she has almost been a second mother to me.” She said that if Khan was doing the same thing for her daughter, Suhana Khan, she would do something similar. The actor also appreciated the designer letting her take the lead.
Ananya Panday said that Gauri took her seriously even though she had known her since her childhood. She never put up any opinion, but just left it all to the actress, with everything being a question or conversation. The Call Me Bae actress grew up around Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan’s kids- Suhana Khan and Aryan Khan. Their bond goes way beyond just friendship, and the duo even calls each other sisters.
