The centres of their universe has always been their children Shanaya and Jahaan ( fun fact: I have named him ) … They raised them to be the most warm and loving children…. (sic).”

Shanaya’s first film was supposed to be Bedhadak, which was produced by Karan Johar and directed by Shashank Khaitan. But, the film was shelved. Later, there were reports that the actress will be seen in Student Of The Year 3, which supposed to be a web series; however, there has been no development about it.
But now, finally, Shanaya is making her debut with Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan. In the trailer of the film, the actress had impressed one and all. So, it will be interesting to see her performance in the movie.
