Earlier, the Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives star Bhavana Pandey was known as the mother of Bollywood actress Ananya Pandey and wife of actor Chunky Pandey. But, she has now made quite a name for herself as an emerging reality TV star.
The new Netflix reality series, Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives, has instantly become a hit amongst the audience. While some still think that this show tops the chart in cringe-worthy content, others are already waiting for season 2. Nonetheless, Bhavana has become one of the fan favorites and gathered a huge following on her social media. Unlike her three friends and co-stars, the 51-year-old former actress Neelam Kothari Soni, Seema Khan, and Maheep Kapoor, Bhavana featured a gentle and warm personality. She appears to be aware of her privileges, and seems grateful for that.
Born on June 21, Bhavana started her career as an air hostess. Many details about her marriage to Chunky aren't known. So, it is difficult to say if the couple had love or an arranged marriage. But, some reports suggest that they tied the knot on January 17, 1998 (via The Cinemaholic), just a few months into their courtship. And they have been together for the last 22 years. The same year in October, they were blessed with their first daughter Ananya. She has recently debuted in the Hindi Film Industry with her film, Student of the Year 2, and won a Filmfare and a Zee Cine Awards. In 2005, the couple had their second daughter, Rysa Pandey. The 16-year-old is in high school and lives a pretty private life for now. Check out the throwback family picture Bhavana posted on her Instagram:
She is very proud of her daughters' and husband's achievements and often pens down heartfelt notes for them on her social media. She isn't afraid of acknowledging that her family is her top priority and work comes later. Still, she does take a lot of pride in her career as a successful fashion designer. During the show, she set up her clothing brand called LoveGen and friends Nandita Mahtani and Dolly Sidhwani. All thanks to Bhavana's dedication and hard work, her store received a tremendous response from customers on the launch day. Here's a video shared by the proud business lady of her first-ever store in Mumbai:
Apart from being a costume designer, the Netflix star also looks after her husband's businesses. Indian Express reports that Bhavana and Chunky have a chain of health-food restaurants in Mumbai. The power couple also owns Bollywood Electrics, which hosts stage shows across India. With the kind of amazing response the Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives is receiving, it seems like Bhavana will get even busier in the coming time.
