Veteran filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt turned 72 today. Making the day special for him, his wife Soni Razdan and three daughters Pooja Bhatt, Shaheen Bhatt and Alia Bhatt shared sweet wishes for him. Workwise, Mahesh returned to direction with Disney+Hotstar's film Sadak 2.
Alia, Mahesh's youngest daughter, shared her childhood picture with her 'Mufasa' and wrote, "I have nothing long or nothing wise to say today.. Our time this year has been too rich to fit into a caption.. but I will say one thing.. something from our favourite film... “ Look inside yourself, you are more than what you’ve become.. remember who you are.. remember! “ happy bday my mufasa.. you’re a good man! never believe anything else"
Pooja wrote, "Birthday greetings to my father,teacher,friend,guide.. Thank you for teaching me to exult in the now,embrace uncertainty & endure strife. And even though you named me ‘Pooja’,never to pray for an easy life!"
Shaheen shared a throwback picture and said, "Old words that ring as true today: "I believe that what we become depends on what our fathers teach us at odd moments, when they aren't trying to teach us. We are formed by little scraps of wisdom." There is no counting the lessons I've received from my father and he's never short of profundity or sweeping words of wisdom about the state of the world we live in when sometimes all you're trying to do is leave the house. My father's greatest lesson to me has been in fearlessness, it has been in teaching me to never be afraid of who I am. He taught me how all the reasons I think I can't fit into the world are actually all the reasons I can - then he taught me how overrated fitting in is. Happy Birthday my Papa, my greatest ally."
Soni wished him by saying, "Happy Birthday sweetheart! Age cannot wither you, nor custom stale your infinite variety ... may you keep inspiring us with your wisdom and good sense. And so much more"
