Mumbai, Jan 4 (NationPress) The renowned Bollywood actor Hrithik Roshan, who recently faced a setback with the film 'War 2', has conveyed warm birthday wishes to Sanjay Khan, the father of his former spouse Sussanne Khan.

On Sunday, Hrithik took to his Instagram to share a heartfelt photograph alongside Sanjay Khan. In the accompanying caption, he fondly reminisced about their initial encounter.

He expressed, "On your special day, Dad, I want to extend my gratitude for being a constant source of love and guidance in my life. You consistently made me feel more cherished than I ever imagined. Among all the places I’ve known, the one spot where I was assured of unconditional love was with you and mom. I still recall the first words you shared with me during our meeting, 'Your name starts with H. It signifies you are destined for great achievements, my son.'"

He continued, "I took that to heart, Dad, because it came from you. Another invaluable piece of advice I remember from my early acting days was when I felt anxious before a shoot. You looked at me and said, 'In that fleeting moment when the clapboard obscures your face, gather yourself, smile, and whisper 'magic time,' then just let it all unfold.' That wisdom has resonated with me ever since, and I still apply it today. It truly works like magic every time."

"You have been a trailblazer in the Indian television industry, creating a meticulously researched historical drama like "Tipu Sultan" long before the internet simplified research. You elevated Indian television well before the OTT wave, and the show remains a beloved classic for many of us even today. Nothing seems to hold you back, Dad; you've even triumphed over death and continued to thrive. May you continue to be our guiding light for another century! We love you. Happy birthday, Dad. I love you and miss you, Mom," he concluded.
