Ananya Panday Reveals Secret Name Of Her Group Chat With Suhana Khan, Shanaya Kapoor And Navya Nanda
Most friendships in showbiz are short-lived, often born under flashing lights and media frenzy. But for Ananya Panday, Suhana Khan, Shanaya Kapoor, and Navya Naveli Nanda, their bond goes way deeper than glamour or gossip. Long before camera flashes and film launches, these four were dreaming out loud. Today, they're all charting different paths. Ananya has found steady ground in films. Suhana is stepping into the limelight. Shanaya recently made her debut. And Navya has carved out her own identity away from cinema. But one thing hasn't changed — their loyalty to each other. And yes, they have a group chat — it's called Ananya's Fans!
In a chat with Times Of India, Ananya said, 'I don't know, but we like to call ourselves Charlie's Angels. We actually have a chat group called Ananya's Fans. I guess our show could be called Charlie's Angels."
While their names now pop up across headlines and red carpets, their friendship has remained grounded. Ananya says work doesn't dominate their conversations. 'We have shared our dreams while growing up, but as much as people think we do, we don't really talk that much about work. We talk about all kinds of things that girls of our age do."
From weekend catchups to keeping each other sane during high-pressure moments, the bond has survived fame's filter. Each of the four brings something unique to the table. But for Ananya, Suhana stands out for her emotional strength.
'Suhana is very kind and soft-hearted and she gets affected by things very easily. Some people think that 'sensitive' is a bad word, but I believe being sensitive is a good quality. As an actor, you need to have sensitivity, and this is Suhana's huge strength."
Ananya Panday started her acting career with Karan Johar's Student of the Year 2. Suhana Khan made her debut in Zoya Akhtar's The Archies. Shanaya Kapoor recently stepped into films with Aankho Ki Gustakhiyan. Navya Naveli Nanda chose not to go into acting and is working in business and social projects instead.
Ananya Panday is the daughter of actor Chunky Panday. Suhana Khan is the daughter of Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan. Shanaya Kapoor's parents are Sanjay Kapoor and Maheep Kapoor. Navya Naveli Nanda is the granddaughter of the legendary Amitabh Bachchan and the daughter of Shweta Bachchan.

Kirron Kher says Anupam Kher feels bad when she doesn't appreciate his work, advises son Sikandar Kher to 'be more like Anupam': 'Sikandar is a laat saheb...'
Veteran actor Kirron Kher is known for her open and honest personality, both on and off screen. In a recent interview, she revealed that she never praises her family's work unless it truly impresses her, even if that means hurting feelings at home. 'I am not one of those people who appreciates family members just like that. My husband feels bad about it,' she told News18, admitting she can't pretend to like every film Anupam Kher has done. 'It shows on my face,' she laughed, recalling how she didn't enjoy Sikandar's performance in Tigmanshu Dhulia's Milan Talkies. Advice to Sikandar: 'Be more like Anupam' Kirron shared that she often urges her son to be less selective with projects. While Sikandar is 'very particular' about his work, she feels he needs to take on more roles, just as Anupam did during his career's peak. 'Anupam has done all the films because he had to earn money and take care of the house and the family. Sikandar is a laat saheb... but things don't work that way,' she pointed out. Kirron acknowledged she had the 'luxury of choice' because Anupam bore the financial responsibility, a privilege she believes Sikandar cannot afford if he wants to keep working consistently. Kirron Kher drops a picture from a lunch date with her husband Anupam Kher; fans say 'You both are looking cute' Anupam Kher on the 'void' of not having children Married since 1985, Kirron and Anupam Kher do not have children together. Sikandar is Kirron's son from her first marriage to Gautam Berry, and was four years old when Anupam entered his life. Speaking on Raj Shamani's podcast, Anupam admitted feeling a 'void' over not having biological children, revealing that Kirron 'could not conceive' and later faced complications when she did. 'I was too busy making it big,' he said, but added that Sikandar 'is still fine for me,' emphasising their strong bond despite the circumstances.
