Actor Supriya Pathak has been on repose for the last couple of days. Her daughter, actor Sanah Kapur, married actor Mayank Pahwa in an intimate ceremony in Mahabaleshwar last week. And while it was a “small event”, Supriya and her husband, actor Pankaj Kapur “were geared up to make it memorable for the guests”. “I don’t think it has sunk in yet,” says Supriya, as she talks about her daughter’s marriage.

The photos from the wedding have been doing the rounds on social media and one featuring Surpiya, Pankaj, and actor-couple Ratna Pathak Shah (Supriya’s sister) and Naseeruddin Shah caught everyone’s attention. In fact, a Twitter user commented, ‘Somebody cast them together in a film please.’ Mention this to her and Supriya quips, “Somebody listen to them (laughs). If someone wants to make a film, we have all the actors in the family. Even my younger son is making his debut.”

Ask her what it’s like when all the veterans are under one roof and she says, “Pagalpan. It’s crazy. We don’t talk about work, as we have a lot to talk about.”

Talking about how the wedding ceremony of her daughter unfolded, she shares, “Sanah looked like a fairy. When she walked down [the aisle] with her father, they played a beautiful song (the Punjabi folk track, Madhaniya). It was an emotional moment. I cried for quite a bit. But then, I was elated when they spoke the vows.”

On a parting note, the Khichdi actor calls actors Manoj and Seema Pahwa (the groom’s parents) “family” and adds, “We have known each other for centuries. Mayank is like my son.”
