Mumbai, Nov 25 (NationPress) As Riteish Deshmukh's son Riaan celebrates his 11th birthday, the actor took a moment to reflect on the invaluable lessons he learns from his child every day.

The proud dad shared how Riaan consistently highlights the beauty in the simplest aspects of life. On his Instagram account, Riteish posted a series of images that encapsulate his treasured moments with Riaan. Alongside these joyful family snapshots, the Masti actor expressed a heartfelt message, revealing how profoundly his son unknowingly instructs him about life.

Riteish noted that Riaan encourages him to find joy in the little things, remain present, and avoid the burden of future worries. He wrote, “Dear darling Riaan,

Today you reach the age of 11, and my heart is overwhelmed with pride and love. Watching you evolve into the kind, caring, thoughtful, and (most importantly) respectful young man you are becoming is simply amazing. Each day, you make Aai and Baba feel like the luckiest parents in the universe.”

“You teach me so much without even realizing it. You inspire me to laugh heartily at trivial matters, to embrace the present moment, to shed tomorrow's anxieties today, and to view the world with curious, joyful eyes. Thanks to you, I’m rediscovering the beauty in simple pleasures: constructing Lego towers that touch the ceiling, performing the silliest dance moves you call 'aura farming,' or lying side by side telling you stories until you drift off to sleep.

You, my sweet boy, are both my greatest adventure and my sanctuary at once.”

The Raid 2 actor further expressed, “I pledge to always be your loudest cheerleader at your games, to listen intently when you share (even if it's about Lamine Yamal for the hundredth time), and to hold your hand for as long as you permit me. I’ll strive to be the kind of adult you perceive me to be, for you deserve nothing less.”

“Thank you for choosing us, Riaan. Thank you for your hugs that mend everything, your smile that brightens rooms, and your heart that loves so immensely. Happy 11th birthday, my sunshine. May this year bring you endless happiness, new aspirations to pursue, and all the achievements you dream of. I love you more than the sky, deeper than the ocean, and beyond all the stars combined, forever and always.

Happy Birthday, my precious Riaan! With all my love, Baba …. Forever yours.”

Riteish Deshmukh and his wife, Genelia, welcomed their first son, Riaan, on November 25, 2014, followed by their second son, Rahyl, born on June 2, 2016.
