Karan Johar is known for launching star kids and he has no qualms about it. The filmmaker clearly believes in recognizing talents who come from filmy families and we say why not? While the filmmaker gave a rather starry push to Alia Bhatt, Varun Dhawan, Janhvi Kapoor and Ananya Panday recently, there are reports about him considering Shanaya Kapoor as his next protege. Sanjay Kapoor's darling daughter and Suhana Khan - Ananya's bestie, Shanaya is gearing up for her Bollywood debut but will she get a launchpad in Johar's next? Father Sanjay Kapoor has an answer. Ananya Panday Posts a Stunning Selfie With Shanaya Kapoor, Calls it 'Double Trouble' Fans Ask Where's Suhana Khan to Make it Triple Fun!

The Mission Mangal actor in his recent conversation with Mumbai Mirror revealed that his daughter is ready for her big B-town debut. She's even undertaking her dance lessons and working as an AD in Janhvi's next release, Gunjan Saxena biopic. When asked if Karan will launch his daughter, he said, "Nothing is finalised yet. If the right project happens tomorrow, Shanaya is ready for it." The star kid wanted to earn a hands-on experiment before she took up acting. Hence she took the decision to work as an AD in cousin, Janhvi's next project.

When Sanjay was asked about why Shanaya didn't pursue any formal training like Suhana Khan in acting or filmmaking, the actor had rather logical reasoning to it. "Shanaya told me that going there (film school) would be a waste of three years and reasoned that most attend classes for three days and party for the rest of the week," he said. "Being an AD teaches you to interact with everyone, from the spot boys to the producer, and learn to value people after becoming an actor," he further added. Suhana Khan and Shanaya Kapoor are Adorable Little Girls in This Childhood Picture and Their BFF Ananya Panday Has This to Say About It!

While Khushi Kapoor is in New York these days brushing up on her acting skills, guess Shanaya is reading scripts to venture into Bollywood and if all goes well, we may hear the announcement very soon.
