“Not helicopter. In school, she was strict, involved in all my schoolwork. I was the first child, she would do all my projects. I wouldn't say I was pampered, but she would help me revise everything. My mom secretly wanted to become an actor, someone in the family told me, that's why she would get into my learning of poems and elocution. Also, I used to tell her everything, even the smallest of things. She was one of the more chill moms. She was involved when I started my career as an actor, I needed her. I would be lost if my mom was not there to help me. Now I think she has realised I am hopefully able to handle things myself.”

Ananya’s mother said that the actress wanted to move out as soon as she stepped into showbiz, but she opposed the idea back then and wanted her to concentrate on her work. Bhavana further added that she felt nervous when Rysa went to the US, but she realised that she should let her daughters fly. In her words:

“In the beginning, Ananya wanted to get her own space as soon as she entered films. I felt she should not take added responsibility right now. How many people are fortunate that they live in Mumbai, and have people looking after everything? She is fortunate she had those things. I felt she should take advantage of it and concentrate on just work. I was nervous in the beginning, but when Rysa went to the US, I realised I should let them fly, they will learn.”
