On
Saturday,
Ananya
Panday
bagged
her
first
big
film
award.
The
young
actress
won
a
Filmfare
award
for
her
debut
performance
in
Student
Of
The
Year
2.
Her
dad
Chunky
Panday
admitted
that
he
was
so
ecstatic
about
her
win
that
he
literally
started
crying;
especially
since
he
himself
has
been
nominated
for
the
Filmfare
four
times
but
has
never
won
it.
Chunky
also
revealed
that
Ananya
has
been
practicing
for
this
moment
ever
since
she
was
young!
Chunky
told
Spotboye,
"In
34
years
of
my
career,
I
have
had
4
nominations
for
films
like
Tezaab,
Aankhen,
Housefull
and
Apna
Sapna
Money
Money
but
I've
never
won
a
Filmfare
award.
So
when
Ananya
was
nominated
I
was
overjoyed.
And
last
night,
when
she
won
it,
I
literally
started
crying.
I
had
tears
in
my
eyes
because
I
just
couldn't
believe
it.
Obviously
she
deserved
it."
He
couldn't
make
it
to
the
event
which
was
held
in
Assam.
"I
saw
a
little
clip
of
Bhavna
(mother)
just
hugging
Ananya
and
giving
her
a
solid
kiss.
She
was
also
too
excited.
You
know
I
have
never
won
that
award
but
my
daughter,
she
had
been
practicing
it
since
she
was
young.
She
used
to
go
in
front
of
the
mirror
and
practice
that
she's
won
the
Filmfare.
And
now,
the
award
has
finally
come
to
my
house," he
added.
After
Student
Of
The
Year
2,
Ananya
went
on
to
star
in
the
remake
of
the
1978
film
Pati
Patni
Aur
Woh,

Aaryan
and
Bhumi
Pednekar.
Next,
she
will
