I got married at 35.'

The Tezaab actor talked about how quickly Bhavana changed his life, making him want to settle down and marry. He said, 'When I met her, within one week, I knew I was going to marry this girl. I don't know why. I have never felt like that with anyone. Maybe it's also about the time.'

Chunky Panday was asked about his thoughts on Ananya's relationship with Bollywood actor Aditya Roy Kapoor. Ananya and Aditya have been dating each other for a few months now.

Speaking about her daughter's relationship, Chunky said, 'I mean, it's fine. I mean, she is 25. She is earning more money than I am right now. So she is free to do what she wants to. How dare I tell her, my 25-year-old daughter, that you have a boyfriend? I mean, I can understand if she were 14 years old or something, I could interfere, but no, no.'
