Zaheer Khan's wife, actress Sagarika Ghatge, took to Instagram on June 15 to share a lovely picture of the father-son duo and wrote a heartfelt message on Father's day.

Netizens have reacted to the post, stating, “Catch ka match khel rahhai fateh.”

“I’m not the one to write captions, but today I am - because someday our son will read this, and he needs to know. He is so incredibly lucky to have you. The love you have for everyone, the way you’re always looking out for others, the grit, the resilience, the quiet strength - if he grows up to be even a little like you, he’ll be someone truly special," Ghatge stated.

She added, “The way you care for everyone who crosses your path, the way you hold steady when things get tough, and your strength to stay silent and still say a thousand words—those are the things that make you who you are. Our son has the best example right in front of him. Happy Fathers Day.”
