Hrithik Roshan shares old pic with sons Hrehaan, Hridhaan

The actor shared an old photo featuring himself along with Hrehaan and Hridhaan as they relaxed in a boat. Hrithik began his note by talking about how proud he is as a father. “ANOTHER STATUTORY WARNING. #loverant Man, it's so much fun to see your kids shine. Caught myself thinking how proud I am as a father,” he said.

"For the men they are growing into, their talents, accomplishments, their work ethic, humility, full-chested pride. Then it struck me, how pride always implicates accomplishment. Starts that very vicious cycle of I am loved if I perform. And slowly pride that tricksy fellow starts masquerading as 'Love'," he wrote.

"And so by way of this rant I'd like to clearly demonstrate (n hopefully inspire) that no matter how great my pride is, it cannot for a second compete with my love for you. For just the way you are. You are here. You are enough. You are wanted. You belong. That’s it," he added.

Hrithik wants Hrehaan, Hridhaan to experience success, failure

Hrithik also urged his sons to experience everything in life and enjoy even failures. "Now by all means go build, explore everything — success (you decide the definition), aim for success at everything, even at the art of doing nothing. And failure… in fact I hope you have spectacular failures, strange ones even. And feel it all, feel it fully, every human emotion, let it wash all over you - grab some popcorn and watch it with wonder, see what it feels like in your body - the pain, joy, loss, connection, loneliness, energy, hopelessness, intimacy — At the bottom of each one - is a quiet wow. Get to it," he added.

"Because that’s the only real pursuit. The human experience. Not meaning. Not winning. Not arriving. But experiencing. (That’s the ride you signed up for). (Not remembering was part of the rules). (You lose nothing by having fun). (Self-growth just unlocks better levels). (This is me half talking to myself). And just in case I ever forget and start measuring you —come remind me. Love came first. Always, concluded his note.

Reacting to it, Hrithik's ex-wife Sussanne Khan said, "Epic pic… and beautiful thoughts.. u must write a book! Dedicated to fatherhood.. (raised hands, smiling face with halo and blue heart emojis)." Saba Azad simply added face holding back tears, melting face, red heart, grinning face with big eyes, and smiling face with tear emojis.
