Understanding, accepting, and standing by me took time. It wasn’t instant. There were moments of confusion, questions, and growth for all of us. But today, standing here, I’m filled with nothing but gratitude.</p> <p>"To have my father beside me through one of the most important moments of my life means everything. His support didn’t come overnight… but when it did, it was real, unconditional, and strong. This surgery was a big step for me, but having him with me made it feel possible.</p> <p>"Growth takes time. Love takes time. But when it comes, it’s worth everything. Grateful. Always," Anaya wrote in her post on Instagram.</p> <h3>Anaya’s Journey</h3> <p>Assigned male at birth and earlier known as Aryan, Anaya once followed in her father’s footsteps with aspirations of becoming a cricketer.</p> <p>She played at various levels, including trials for Mumbai Under-16, Puducherry Under-19, and Mumbai Under-23 teams. Her transition became public in 2023 when she began Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), marking the start of a new chapter in her life.</p>
