The Panesar family are a fictional family from the BBC soap opera EastEnders. The family first appeared in episode 6001, broadcast on 4 October 2019, becoming the show's first Punjabi Sikh family. Introduced by executive producer Jon Sen, the family originally consisted of brothers Jags (Amar Adita), Kheerat (Jaz Deol), and Vinny Panesar (Shiv Jalota); and it was later revealed that established character Ash (Gurlaine Kaur Garcha) was their sister.
As their run progressed, the siblings' parents were introduced: Their cold, calculated mother Suki (Balvinder Sopal); and their abusive, manipulative father Nish (Navin Chowdhry). Nish's introduction added four more members to the family: His ruthless illegitimate son Ravi Gulati (Aaron Thiara); Ravi's feisty ex-girlfriend Priya Nandra-Hart (Sophie Khan Levy); and their two teenage children Nugget (Juhaim Rasul Choudhury) and Avani (Aaliyah James).
