Ananya Panday Calls Shah Rukh Khan Am ‘Amazing Father’; Reveals He Taught Her How To Ride A Bike, Helped With Studies
Ananya Panday is often spotted with the Khan family and shares a close bond with Suhana Khan. The actress recently spoke about her connection with Shah Rukh Khan and said that he is an amazing father, not just to his own kids but to them as well. Speaking on Raj Shamani’s podcast, Panday spoke highly of the actor and how he was a pivotal part of her childhood growing up.
She said, “He’s just the most amazing father. He has given his children, and not just his immediate children but all of us, so much time. Even though he may be the busiest man, he will always take that time out for his kids, for their education, for their sports. He’s come for every single sports day of ours, he’s taught me for my relay races, he used to practice taekwondo with us, he taught me and Shanaya how to ride a bike, he’d play football with us, help us with our homework. Any problem we had, we could call him up. He’s the definition of an emotionally available man.”
She was also asked about SRK’s charm and charisma, to which she said, “It’s that charisma thing. When you are the king but you can still make everybody feel like they’re the king. He does that. The way he conducts himself; he’s been very real. If you watch his old interviews, he has never been some cookie-cutter, formulaic thing. He has always spoken his mind. He has always been honest and real. If he’s angry, he’s angry; if he’s emotional, he’s emotional; if he’s happy, he’s happy. You’ve seen all sides of him.”
