00:00My son studies in London and he does the laundry himself.

00:05Amazing.

00:05He cooks himself

00:07He's an expert at cooking.

00:12He washes clothes and dishes himself.

00:14If I tell you that I don't want to buy him expensive clothes

00:18when he knows his dad will buy him some.

00:20I'm very happy, he told me that he doesn't want to be in movies.

00:24No problem, son. It's up to you.

00:27You've got to make your life better.

00:28Whatever you want to do, I am with you.

00:31I think there are very few people like me who…

00:34When I go to London, I drop my daughter to school in the morning.

00:40Then I drop my son to university.

00:42Then I drop my wife to university.

00:45And I sit at home like an illiterate.

00:48And then I watch cricket.

00:53Brother, Arav and Nitara are growing up with time.

00:58When did you realize that your children have grown up?

01:01Or did they say anything that made you realize that your children have grown up?

01:03Look, my son studies in London.

01:07Yes.

01:09He left at the age of 15.

01:11He used to live in a hostel.

01:12Okay.

01:12He was fond of studying and living alone.

01:15Okay.

01:16Was that your decision?

01:17No, that was his decision.

01:18Okay, that he should live alone.

01:18No, I didn't want him to go.

01:21Okay.

01:21I didn't want him to go.

01:22But he left at the age of 15.

01:24But I couldn't stop him.

01:27Because I left at the age of 14.

01:29I also believe that when a child leaves,

01:32he gains leadership qualities by living alone.

01:34Now he does his own laundry.

01:36That's great.

01:36He cooks his own food.

01:38He is an expert in cooking as well.

01:39He cooks his own food.

01:43He washes his own clothes.

01:43He washes his own utensils.

01:45If I tell you that he doesn't want to buy expensive clothes,

01:49when he knows that his father can buy it for him.

01:52He goes to a shop called Thrifty.

01:54Okay.

01:55Do you know what Thrifty is?

01:56I don't know.

01:57It's a second-hand clothes shop.

01:58Okay.

01:59He goes there and buys second-hand clothes.

02:01Okay.

02:01He says that he doesn't want to waste anything.

02:03Okay.

02:04And he buys that.

02:05He buys that.

02:05Yeah.

02:06You don't buy torn clothes as well?

02:07No, no.

02:08I don't buy torn clothes.

02:11I don't buy torn clothes.

02:13I am not saying that you should buy torn clothes.

02:14No, I am not.

02:15I am not saying that you should buy torn clothes.

02:17No, no.

02:18I am very happy with the way

02:21Tina and I have bottomed up in life.

02:23He is a very simple boy.

02:25Very simple.

02:26My daughter is…

02:28She likes it when I buy good clothes for her.

02:30And brother, the message that I have learned from this is that

02:34no matter which family you are from,

02:36you should make sure that your child's character is strong.

02:39It is in the hands of the parents.

02:41The parents can do it to a certain extent.

02:42Yes.

02:43After that, it is up to them.

02:44And that is our duty.

02:45Yes, that is our duty.

02:46We have to support them for 7-8 years.

02:48That is our duty.

02:49We have never forced them to do something.

02:55If he is interested in fashion, then he should do it.

02:58If he does not want to come in films, then he should not come.

03:00Whatever his soul desires.

03:03I am very happy.

03:04He told me that he does not want to come in films.

03:06No problem, son.

03:07It is your wish.

03:09You have to make your life better.

03:11Whatever you want to do, I am with you.

03:13So, brother, if we talk about sister-in-law,

03:15Rajesh Khanna's daughter, superstar's daughter,

03:18and you are a desi Punjabi boy.

03:19I just want to know in which temple did you light the lamp

03:23that you got married and got such a good partner for your life?

03:28I am very happy that I married one of the biggest superstars,

03:31Mr. Rajesh Khanna's daughter.

03:33But more important than this,

03:35is that she is a lovely wife and a lovely mother.

03:39If you get the right partner,

03:42then half of your life will be spent in peace.

03:45Then you know that your journey ahead will be good.

03:49Because I go to work.

03:51I have to take care of the kids.

03:53And she has taken such good care of my children.

03:56What happened?

03:57Do you feel at peace?

03:57Even today, I am surprised the way my wife thinks about life.

04:04She is 50 years old.

04:06Even today, she goes to study.

04:07She goes to study.

04:08She goes to the university.

04:09She is doing a course there.

04:10So, she has done her master's.

04:13Now, she wants to do her PhD.

04:14I think there are very few people like me who,

04:17when I go to London,

04:19I drop my daughter to school in the morning.

04:24Then I drop my son to the university.

04:26Wow!

04:26Then I drop my wife to the university.

04:28And I sit at home like an illiterate person.

04:31And then I watch cricket.
