Bhavana Pandey spoke about the positive influence of Shah Rukh Khan on her kids and said that he would often train the kids in sports and is responsible for them learning how to be competitive in a healthy way.
In an interview with Siddharth Kanan, Bhavana opened up about how Gauri is the heart of their friend group. She explained that while Gauri might seem distant at times, she’s actually the one who keeps everyone connected. Bhavana revealed, “Gauri is always the one making plans, even though she may seem disinterested. We often end up gathering at her house, especially when the kids were little, because she has a garden where they could play and run around.”
When asked about SRK’s influence on the kids, Bhavana shared that there’s a lot to learn from him. She expressed how grateful she is that the children have spent so much time with him. For Bhavana, it’s not about Shah Rukh’s fame, but the way he has been as a father to his own children—Suhana, Aryan, and AbRam—and how he’s been with her own kids. She described the experience as truly wonderful.
She also mentioned that Shah Rukh would often train Suhana, Ananya, and Shanaya in sports whenever he had free time, which she found amazing. He would get involved in various activities like running and football with the kids, as he’s very active and sporty himself. While she and Chunky would sometimes get lazy about sports, Shah Rukh taught the children how to compete in a healthy way. She added that he always supported the girls, even over Aryan and the boys, which she found beautiful.
Bhavana Pandey praised Aryan Khan as “one of the sweetest boys” who is “very well-mannered.” When asked about his protective nature towards his childhood friends, she explained that Shah Rukh has raised the girls to be strong and capable of protecting themselves. She emphasized that they are all long-time friends who look out for each other.
