Ananya Panday says it was a surreal feeling to receive a call from Shah Rukh Khan for her performance in SOTY2

Ananya Panday is riding high on success post the release of her first film Student Of The Year 2. The 20-year-old actress not just wowed everyone with her fine looks but also with her innate talent of acting. Her portrayal of Shreya was acknowledged by one and all. While giving an interview to a leading daily, Ananya shared that amongst all those who gave her a call to congratulate upon the film's release, it was her best friend Suhana Khan's father Shah Rukh Khan's call that gave her a 'surreal feeling'. Ananya, who considers Shah Rukh as her second father told that he called her immediately after watching SOTY 2 and reminisced memories of her childhood.

"He called me right after the night he saw it. For me, I've grown up around him and he used to record us (Ananya, Suhana and Shanaya) when we were younger. So, even for him watching us on-screen was surreal. And he actually telling me that he's seen me on screen was such a surreal feeling. He was just like it's so weird that I've seen you all grow up. You used to play these acting games in front of me and now you are actually in a movie. So, I think for him it was like proud, very proud moment," Ananya quoted.
