Bollywood actor Chunky Panday, who has brought so many laughs on screen with his infectious laughter and some fantastic performances, talks to IBT about his most precious relationships with daughters Ananya and Rysa. He revealed the life of the family, changing equations with daughters, and sense of pride in being a father in an interview.
Chunky Panday’s voice is full of evident emotion as he talks about Ananya Panday and Rysa Panday. He loves to talk of Ananya’s success in films with paternal pride. Ananya, who has already carved a niche for herself in films like “Student of the Year 2” and “Pati Patni Aur Woh,” keeps surprising her father with hard work and talent. Chunky is equally proud of Rysa, though she may be younger; at least, she’s doing her thing and making her family smile.
Chunky talks about how his relationship with his daughters has evolved over time. “When they were babies, I taught them, pampered them, and scolded them. Now, they teach me, pamper me, and scold me,” he laughs. This evolution means the kind of love and respect that is deep because of time.
It’s a lively household with plenty of laughter and sometimes sibling squabbles. Chunky lightly threatens to reveal how loud some of Ananya and Rysa’s arguments can get, complete with dogs yapping loudly in the background. But amidst all this chaos is a bond between sisters – very strong.
Being a father is more than just providing for Chunky Panday; he also becomes a friend and confidant for his little girls. For one, he is accustomed to open communication with his daughters. “He’s been that guy from the day they were born-at whatever age they are, they know for sure that whenever there is a problem, Dad is their first and last resort,” he beams with pride.
On days like Daughters Day, Chunky gets a chance to celebrate Ananya and Rysa. He re-lives moments of joyous laughter and learning, emphasizing how his daughters have enriched his life. “I love both my daughters more and more every day,” he says, highlighting the deep affection he holds for them.
Chunky Panday reflects on his daughters with a peek at the lovingly nurturing environment he has created. His pride and joy for Ananya and Rysa are very relatable, making it clear that for Chunky, family always comes first.
