On the web series Fabulous Lives Of Bollywood Wives, during Shanaya's debut, the audience got to see Sanjay Kapoor being possessive about Shanaya's boyfriend at Le Bal in Paris while her mother Maheep was mellower. In her recent interview with a newswire, Shanaya stifles a laugh recalling the episode and said, "Like all parents are, I guess! My dad never asks or wants to know, but he is very protective," she says, adding: "My mom is like my best friend, so she asks me a list of a minimum of 100 questions before I leave and come back from the date. But I wouldn't say they annoy me much."

Shanaya's first film is directed by Shashank Khaitan and, like the debut projects of many industry kids lately, will be produced by Karan Johar's Dharma Productions. She is cast opposite actors Gurfateh Pirzada and Laksh Lalwani in the film, a rom-com love triangle.

The debutant actor has been preparing for the film before it goes on the floor after lockdown gets over. "I think understanding the skin and honesty of a character is important," she says. Before her debut film, Shanaya worked as an assistant director on her cousin Janhvi Kapoor-starrer Gunjan Saxena to understand filmmaking and how film sets function.
