Father’s day first came into being in 1910 when it was celebrated for the very first time. The day is celebrated on the third Sunday of every June with great joy. This year, Father’s day falls on 19 June.
The day aims to acknowledge and appreciate the efforts and struggles of fathers or paternal figures in raising their children. The role of a mother in the upbringing of her children often overpowers the important role that fathers play. By the time children recognise the efforts of their fathers, it becomes a little difficult to express their feelings.
The Hindi film industry or Bollywood has often based films on the struggles and efforts that a father puts into ensuring the best for their children. These films work as a catalyst to break the stereotypical role that men play in rearing their children.
On the occasion of Father’s day, here is a look at some of the popular Bollywood father-son duos:
