Ananya elaborated, “When KKR won their first IPL, he told us, ‘It is because of you three, you are my lucky charm, you will always be with me.’ He always makes us feel special.” Her admiration for Shah Rukh Khan’s inclusive and respectful nature shines through, highlighting his ability to make everyone feel significant.
A Decade of Dedication
Seeing the trio’s picture from 2012 alongside their recent photos from 2024 underscores their decade-long dedication to supporting KKR. From cheering as young fans to becoming prominent personalities in Bollywood, their journey has been remarkable.
