Giving the example of his sister, Chanchlani said, "I have a sister who has a YouTube channel. She was there in all my bhai-behen videos. People love her so much now, and they have loved our chemistry in all the videos. People give love to her and then she got the motivation to start her channel."
Continuing on the topic, Ashish Chanchlani revealed, "She now works very hard. And she tries her best to not use my name. Yes, people do know she is my sister but she is such a hard worker that she has made a name for herself. So the power lies in the hands of people. And for those in power, if you use that to block a talent, that is wrong. It’s favouritism that I feel is wrong."
