Javed Akhtar is a proud father of extremely gifted Farhan Akhtar who is an actor, filmmaker and singer all together.

The Khan brothers have made many films together and have managed carved their own niche in Bollywood.

Shatrughan and Sonakshi Sinha

Dotting father Shatrughan Sinha has reasons to be anxious ever since daughter Sonakshi stormed at the Box Office with her lovely looks in ‘Dabangg’. The adulation pouring in for Sonakshi must have hit the superstar of yester year Shatrughan with a bout of nostalgia. Shatrughan Sinha delivered many hit films during 70’s to 90’s however now he is more involved in the politics now.

Likewise, son Ranbir Kapoor is nation’s most eligible bachelor with girls drooling over him. Ranbir has had an upward career graph ever since he debuted in the year 2007. A good looking son with career going places is all that makes a father proud!

Anil and Sonam Kapoor

Sonam Kapoor is the eldest daughter of actor Anil Kapoor. Anil has been a successful actor in Bollywood for over three decades now and now it seems as if he has stopped ageing. Every year he seems to have grown younger and more active in his career as an actor. He is one those stars who have made it big in Hollywood too. It is impressive to see him and his daughter work in the same industry at the same time and no he maybe a father in real life but he hasn’t resorted to play a fathers role on screen yet because he just doesn’t seem to be ageing, which rather makes Sonam a proud daughter indeed!

Amitabh and Abhishek Bachchan

The Deols

The Deol’s are another success story in Bollywood. Dharmendra himself is an extremely established star of his time and both his sons, Sunny and Bobby have made their mark in the Hindi film industry. Now they prefer to make movies together playing father and son on screen. It is a delight to see them all in a film together. Their film ‘Apney’ was a huge hit in which the three of them starred together for the first time. In the beginning of 2011 they came up with ‘Yamla, Pagla, Deewana’ which was absolutely loved by their fans and if sources are to be believed the sequel is on its way soon.
