Hrithik praises his father, Rakesh Roshan
The 'Krrish' actor addressed his father as his 'best teacher' and credited him for giving him the strength to face hardships with balance and wisdom.


Hrithik Roshan wrote: “Happy birthday to you papa. Thank you for building this resilience inside me. When life gets hard, it feels like home. Nothing can and nothing will shake the soldier in me. Over the years I have learnt to see the opposite as well , and I know you have too. The discovery of worthiness within , the simplicity of just being, the collapse of external validation. Never complete , but no longer empty. I would have never reached this place of equanimity, this place of wisdom, without first traversing the hard path. Thank you for building that soldier in me. For being the best teacher one could ask for. I stand proud (and strong) , cause I am your son . I love you.”

“You listened to my little problems, even though they were so much smaller than your own. You worked so hard to make life safe, happy, and full of love. I hope you know how deeply I love you, and just not today, but every single day. Wishing you a happy, happy birthday, Papa, and I love you.”

Sunaina penned the caption that reads, “My forever hero, my Papa. Happiest birthday to the one who taught me love, strength and kindness every single day. Love you Papa.”
