Panchi Bora had walked down the aisle with her longtime beau, Jay Patangia on January 17, 2017, and a year later, the lovebirds embraced parenthood with the arrival of their little angel. It was on February 28, 2018, when Panchi had announced the arrival of her daughter and had written, “Our lil daughter “miss Riyanna Patangia” already daddy’s girl n mommy’s heartbeat.

Announcing the pregnancy to her fans, Panchi shared a lovely picture with her husband, Jay, wherein the mommy-to-be can be seen holding her mini-baby bump. She wrote along with it, “Blessed #secondpregnancy #comingsoon2019”.
Sometime back, the #10YearChallenge that went viral on the social media had celebrities posting their then-and-now pictures, and inspiring everyone with how their beauty, career graph and fitness levels had changed in the past decade. Panchi Bora too, had followed the trend and had posted a picture collage with a solo picture and one with her baby cuddled in her arms. She had captioned it as, “Dancing solo 2009 now 2019 someone is making me dance to her tunes!! #10yearchallenge”.
Panchi Bora’s husband, Jay Patangia doesn’t belong from the showbiz world and it was an arranged marriage for the couple. After a meeting with the families, Panchi and Jay instantly felt the connection with each other. Talking about the same, a source close to the couple was earlier quoted as saying, "It was an arranged marriage. The two met and found a connect. Eventually wedding bells were sounded off."

In a throwback interview with Rediff News, Panchi Bora had talked about her debut in the showbiz world. Revealing that she wanted to become a lawyer, Panchi had said, “My father is a retired army officer. I wanted to become a lawyer. During my first year in college, I auditioned for commercials and got a break in a Cadbury ad. Ekta Kapoor [head, Balaji Telefilms] saw the ad and asked me to audition for MTV and Balaji Films' Kitni Mast Hai Zindagi. I bagged the part of a radio jockey, Ananya Puri.”
Elaborating on how did her show, Kayamath happened, Panchi Bora had stated, “After Kitni Mast Hai Zindagi, I took a break and decided to complete my graduation. Having quit law, I got a Bachelor of Arts degree. During the break, Ekta thought of casting me in Kayamath. I do not know how she tracked me as I had changed my residence. It must have taken a lot of effort on her part to track me. Initially, I was not interested in the role. I knew from my Kitni Mast Hai Zindagi experience that television would be hectic. But Ekta persisted and even narrated the script to me. I found it interesting and took it up.” (Also Read: Sunny Leone Opens Up About Her Son, Asher Being Compared To Taimur Ali Khan)
