Ananya Panday's mother Bhavana Pandey is her biggest cheerleader. The Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives star is often seen talking about her daughter. In a recent chat with indianexpress.com, Bhavana opened up about how “bad and hurt” she feels when her daughter is scrutinised. She said, “It is very difficult, and you feel really bad and hurt. But, they've decided to put themselves out there for judgement and it's okay to be judged. I think unnecessary criticism is not okay. Constructive criticism is always better, and that makes everyone better.” Bhavana also said that she loves being identified as “Ananya's mother,” even after her appearance on the Netflix show. She added, “Now, I have my own identity and it feels great. But my favorite is still ‘Ananya's mother'.”
Bhavana Pandey and Chunky Panday are proud parents of two daughters, Ananya Panday and Rysa Pandey.

In the caption, the proud mother wrote, “You make us so proud (heart emoji) From Student of the year 2 to Kho Gaye Hum Kahan! It's been a wonderful journey.”
When Ananya Panday won the Hot & Techy Performer of the Year Award at the Zee Cine Awards, her mother shared an Instagram post celebrating the achievement.
