Bollywood’s badass villain, birthday boy Shakti Kapoor is a loving father of two and a pretty slapstick comedian too! As our Gogo Ji turns a year older, here’s looking at the fun dad he really is.
This Father’s Day, here’s a special message from daughter Shraddha - “Baapu.. my guiding light. My pillar of strength, belief and love. The wind beneath my wings. You always told me that I could do and be whatever I want to be. Thank you for showing me that the sky is limitless. I love you. Happy Father’s Day.”
Actor Shraddha Kapoor had shared this adorable family pic via social media earlier with mum Shivangi Kolhapure, brother Siddhanth Kapoor and dad Shakti Kapoor.
Here’s the man himself, reliving what is probably his most favourite dialogue too!
