Ahaan Panday, Chunky Panday’s nephew, still has a few years before he makes his Bollywood debut, but the young lad is quite popular on social media. The same holds true for Manushi Chhillar, who was crowned Miss World last year. Apparently, both of them have become close friends over the past few months.

Says a source, “Ahaan and Manushi, who hang out with the same bunch of friends, bonded at a common buddy’s party. Since then, they have stayed in touch and have become the best of friends. In fact, Ahaan was even present to ring in Manushi’s birthday earlier this year (May 14).”

Reportedly, Manushi was dating model Rohit Khandelwal, but that buzz died down a few months ago. “Rohit had won the Mr World pageant and he apparently helped Manushi train for her Miss World stint. They were reportedly close to each other for some time before they went their separate ways owing to some differences,” adds the source. 

As for Ahaan, he has signed a three-film deal with a big banner and is currently readying himself for showbiz. Manushi, too, is gearing up for a career in movies. A common friend of the two youngsters tells us, “They just love hanging out together.” Guess we have two new friends in B-Town!
