Utna hi pyaar hai aur main jeeta hi sirf uske liye (I love seeing your bond with your father because I have the same bond with Athiya. There is the same love and I live only for her).”
He further said, “ye relationship hamesha aisa hi rahna chahiye. Mere papa ke saath mera relationship aisa hi tha (this relationship should remain like this forever. I had the same bond with my own father). I am a very proud son of my father kyunki 9 saal ki umar main, main hamesha kahta hu, cleaner boy they wo. Itni chhoti umar mein table ke charo taraf khumte they table saaf karne ke liye par unka haath nahi pahuchta tha. Mujhe hamesha har cheez mein wohi baat yaad rahti hai. Aap jo bhi ho ma baap ki badaulat ho (he was a cleaner boy at 9. At such a young age, he had to go around the table to clean it and still his hand won't reach the centre. I remember this all the time. Whatever you are is because of your parents). Always be indebted to them, never ever forget that.”
