Love you," read Sanjay Kapoor's birthday greeting for Shanaya while Maheep's excitement about Shanaya turning 20 spilled onto Instagram like this: "I am a mama of a 20 year old. So, so proud of my girl." Ananya Panday also dedicated an adorable Instagram story to birthday girl Shanaya: "My soul-mate turns 20," she wrote.

While Ananya Panday has already forayed into Bollywood with Student Of The Year 2, Shanaya Kapoor's first step in the film industry is not as an actress but as assistant director for the biopic of IAF pilot Gunjan Saxena The Kargil Girl, starring Janhvi Kapoor in the lead role.
Shanaya appears to have taken a leaf out of cousins Sonam and Arjun's book for making a career in films. Both Sonam and Arjun started their Bollywood journeys as assistant directors.
Happy birthday, Shanaya Kapoor!
