00:00Got cash? Take her.

00:02That sounds so bad!

00:04Guys!

00:05I remember,

00:06Bhai told me once

00:08that Dadaji told him

00:09the day your son starts wearing your shoes

00:11he ceases to be your son and becomes your friend.

00:13But it was also very distressing

00:14because then he was going to be wearing all my shoes

00:16and all my clothes.

00:17And he never remembers any of the boyfriend's names.

00:20God, seriously?

00:21He doesn't. He pretends not to remember.

00:22He calls him on different things.

00:24Why?

00:25What do you call that?

00:26Because I know she's not serious, ya.

00:31About anybody?

00:32I know her too well.

00:33I know her too well.

00:34Did he always protect you?

00:35Because I believe that once

00:36when he threw you up in the air

00:37and you were wearing a lungi,

00:38he actually protected the lungi and not you.

00:40That's right, ya.

00:41There are some incidents, ya.

00:43Is that true?

00:44He threw you up in the air

00:45and the lungi fell off.

00:47But he was more concerned

00:48about the lungi and you fell.

00:49No, but he thought

00:50he could catch the lungi

00:51and catch me at the same time.

00:53Just go for that and then catch me.

00:55What I do catch

00:56is this vibe of this friendship

00:58that you have with your father.

01:00Clearly, there was somewhere

01:02that I read again

01:03where you said that

01:04you are like buddies with your father

01:06and not so with your mom and sister

01:08as much as you are with your father.

01:10Which is an unusual scenario, really

01:12because it's always the mother

01:13who's the friend

01:14or the sister who's the confidant

01:15in an equation.

01:16I'm equally close to my mother

01:18as I am to my father.

01:19But, you know,

01:20I don't think I've ever

01:21been in a relationship

01:22as close to my mother

01:23as I am to my father.

01:24But I think a mother

01:25will remain that.

01:26A mother,

01:27which is a very special place

01:28in anybody's heart.

01:29My sister is my elder sister.

01:31I cannot look upon her

01:32in any other way.

01:33She's always behaved

01:35like an elder sister with me.

01:36She's always, you know,

01:37there to take care of me,

01:38to talk to me, whenever.

01:39My father has essayed

01:41many different roles.

01:42Apart from being a father,

01:43he's also been my best friend.

01:45He's been the one person

01:46who's stood by me

01:47unrelenting and supportive

01:49regardless of what it was.

01:51I remember

01:52Pa had told me once

01:54that Dadaji told him,

01:55the day your son

01:56starts wearing your shoes,

01:57he ceases to be your son

01:59and becomes your friend.

02:00I started wearing his shoes

02:01when I was 11.

02:02And I believe that was

02:03a very emotional point

02:04in your life.

02:05But it was also very distressing

02:06because then he was going

02:07to be wearing all my shoes

02:08and all my clothes.

02:09So he stepped in your shoes

02:11literally and otherwise.

02:12That's sometimes not

02:13very acceptable.

02:14But we'll forgive him for that.

02:15So I was born when I was 23,

02:17at least, or 24.

02:19So I was quite young.

02:20So we've always had

02:21this kind of relationship

02:23where if I tell her,

02:24okay, listen,

02:25don't do that,

02:26you know,

02:27and she looks at me

02:28and says, you know,

02:29really?

02:30You did that.

02:31It becomes slightly difficult

02:32to discipline her sometimes

02:33about certain things.

02:34We've had a slightly

02:35unconventional age gap

02:36in that sense.

02:37And what are your fights like

02:38when you fight,

02:39or your arguments

02:40or disagreements?

02:41I mean, is it like volatile?

02:42Is it lots of streaming,

02:43shouting, or is it like

02:44mature discussions?

02:45Well, when she was smaller,

02:49I think she was more patient

02:51in the sense that

02:52I could take off on her

02:53quite a lot.

02:54And she'd take it.

02:56But I remember

02:57the last argument

02:58or something we had

02:59on the phone,

03:00I think I hung up on her

03:01as usual.

03:03And then she didn't

03:04call me back.

03:05It was very, very rude to me.

03:07Hang on.

03:08I don't think we can talk

03:09about it on national television.

03:11Oh, you can't talk about it?

03:12No.

03:13Then I called her back

03:14about five minutes later.

03:16To Yelmore, by the way.

03:17Not like, okay,

03:18I'll be the bigger person

03:20and I'll call back.

03:21It was like, also!

03:22And then hung up again.

03:23You hung up twice?

03:24Yeah.

03:25And then the third time?

03:26You know, there was no

03:27third time.

03:28Then I called you the next day.

03:29Did you?

03:30Yes.

03:31And I think I'm still

03:32very, very patient.

03:33The first three questions

03:34at Saif Ali Khan,

03:35the father would ask

03:36Sara's boyfriend.

03:37Political views?

03:38Drugs?

03:40What are your views

03:41on infidelity?

03:42Money would be a nice

03:43question to ask.

03:44I would ask that first.

03:45Money?

03:46Yeah.

03:47Oh no, I imagined saying that.

03:48Yeah, I would ask.

03:49Got cash?

03:50How much cash?

03:51Got cash?

03:52Take her.

03:53That sounds so bad!

03:54Guys!

03:55What kind of a father is he?

03:56Is he a father

03:57of the bride kind of father?

03:58Approving of boyfriends

03:59and personal life?

04:00No, he is the coolest

04:01dad ever.

04:02Like, can you chat about him

04:03about like a heartbreak situation?

04:05Yeah, yeah, yeah.

04:06All the time.

04:07All the time.

04:08And he never remembers

04:09any of the boyfriend's names.

04:10God, seriously?

04:11He doesn't.

04:12He pretends not to remember.

04:13He calls him on different things.

04:14Why?

04:15What do you call that?

04:16Because I know

04:17she's not serious, yaar.

04:20About anybody?

04:21Yeah, I know her too well.

04:23I know her too well.

04:24So you know when

04:25she'll be serious?

04:26Yeah, I know when she's serious.

04:27I think honestly,

04:28it's just that he's a

04:29really cool dad.

04:30Like, really cool dad.

04:31Yeah.

04:32I mean, thank God.

04:33That he's not one

04:34quintessential MCP

04:35kind of father.

04:36No, he's not at all.

04:37So, you know when

04:38Sonam looks really sexy

04:39in a shoot,

04:40what is your take?

04:41Like, I want to know

04:42as a conventional,

04:43because you are a

04:44good cop, bad cop.

04:45Obviously, Sunitha says,

04:46what is she wearing?

04:48It's okay, yaar.

04:49I don't know where, yaar.

04:50Let me tell you something

04:51about my father.

04:52He's a very hands-on

04:53father as well.

04:54I remember growing up,

04:55he used to go shoot

04:56out of town,

04:57you know, out of the country.

04:58Not out of the country,

04:59but whenever he used

05:00to shoot in the country,

05:01let's say he used to

05:02shoot in Ooty or something.

05:03He used to come back

05:04every night just to sleep.

05:05Chennai, Bangalore, Delhi.

05:06Yeah.

05:07All these places

05:08I used to come back to

05:09just to cuddle him up.

05:10Oh, really?

05:11All the way back

05:12just to meet you in the night?

05:13He used to take the flight

05:14back early in the morning.

05:15Yeah.

05:16That's amazing.

05:17That's what you call

05:18a fatherhood.

05:19I really lucked out

05:20with my family.

05:21I'm so thankful I have them

05:22as my parents.

05:23Did he always protect you?

05:24Because I believe that

05:25once when he threw you

05:26up in the air

05:27and you were wearing a lungi,

05:28he actually protected

05:29the lungi and not you.

05:30That's right, yeah.

05:31There are some incidents,

05:32yeah.

05:33Is that true?

05:34Yeah.

05:35He threw you up in the air

05:36and the lungi fell off.

05:37Yeah.

05:38But he was more

05:39concerned about the lungi

05:40and you fell.

05:41No, but he thought

05:42for that you need to retire.

05:43Yeah.
