With time came new changes and trends. The same is the case with Bollywood. We all had been fans of many actors and actresses cheering their fans with their stellar performances and dialogues. Well, if you ask me I have enjoyed the cinema of the 90s. But with change in the decade comes a change in choices of people. Today Indian cinema is filled with a new breed of talents with actors like Raj Kumar Rao, Deepika Padukone, Kriti Sanon, Ayushman Khurana, Vicky Kaushal, Alia Bhatt, Kiara Advani and so many to name.
Well, when it comes to acting, then some don’t have godfathers and have established themselves with their sheer hard work and talent. And there are star kids who often bear the taint of getting easy success just because they are sons or daughters of any established actor or actress. But if you ask me, then I don’t believe in it.
Why because there have been star kids who despite being a star kid failed to make it big in Bollywood. Hence, success does not come so easily. You have to earn it. Well, today I am going to brief you about a star kid who might not have many collections of films but has the potential to make her mark in the coming years. She is Ananya Pandey, daughter of actor Chunky Pandey.
Ananya is a beautiful young actress who made her debut with Student of the Year 2 three years ago along with Tiger Shroff and Tara Sutaria. She also starred in Kartik Aryan starrer Pati Patni Aur Woh. And her performance did get noticed and that resulted in Ananya receiving the Best Female Debut award.
So Positive was an initiative launched by her. It was mainly focused on making people aware of social media bullying, nulling negativity, and creation of a community on a positive note. This project was even named as an initiative of the year during an award event by Economic Times in 2019. Ananya also came under the list of The Times Most Desirable Women by Times of India. She ranked 37 in 2019 and rose to 31 in 2020.
Ananya was even linked with the Aryan Khan drug case but later it came out that the chats with Shahrukh Khan’s elder son were in a lighter vein. An official stated her denial of consuming drugs. Her Bandra house was raided by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB). You might be knowing Ananya Pandey as a newbie actress in Bollywood and the limelight she gets. But are you aware of her early life, career, and earnings? If not then today you will get to know all about it in this article.
