Is Ananya Panday in a relationship?
Currently, Ananya Panday has not publicly confirmed a boyfriend. Media reports have linked her to Walker Blanco since mid‑2023 based on shared vacation photos, but no official statement from either party exists (Bombay Times). The same source describes the link as a “rumour.”
- No confirmed partner as of March 2025.
- Walker Blanco connection: unconfirmed.
The pattern: Ananya’s relationship status remains officially unknown. For fans, the only reliable takeaway is that she has not made any personal announcement.
How many boyfriends has Ananya Pandey had?
Publicly, she has been linked to six men since 2018. Each link is based on tabloid reports, not on‑record statements from Panday.
Who is Ananya Panday’s ex-boyfriend?
- Karan Jaising (2018, rumoured; Bombay Times)
- Kartik Aaryan (2019, rumoured; Times Now News (digital news platform))
- Ishaan Khatter (2019–2022, widely reported; Times Now News)
- Vijay Deverakonda (2022, speculation; News18 (news website))
- Aditya Roy Kapur (2021–2023, most prominent; Bombay Times)
- Walker Blanco (2023–present, unconfirmed; Bombay Times)
Why did Ananya and Aditya break up?
Multiple outlets report that the pair split in March 2024 after roughly two years together (AugustMan India (lifestyle magazine)). No reason was given by either side. The Times of India quotes Panday saying she “believes in 90s style romance” — but no direct breakup explanation (Times of India (Indian daily)).
The implication: Ananya’s romantic timeline is built on rumor and media inference, not direct confirmation. For anyone trying to count “boyfriends,” the answer depends on how much weight you give to unverified reports.
Did Ahaan Panday date Suhana Khan?
Tabloids reported in 2021 that Ananya’s brother Ahaan Panday was dating Suhana Khan, daughter of Shah Rukh Khan (Indiatimes (news portal)). Neither Ahaan nor Suhana has ever confirmed the relationship. The claim remains in the unverified category.
Suhana Khan’s own career trajectory and Ahaan Panday’s rare public appearances together would provide the only real evidence. Until then, it’s a celebrity gossip item.
Until either party confirms, the claim remains unverified.
