Today, as we celebrate his birth anniversary, I don’t just remember him, I relive the love, the laughter, the wisdom he gifted us all. His bond with music, his deep connection with legends like Mohammed Rafi Sahab, and his ability to touch lives with quiet grace will always inspire me. Though he’s no longer here in body, I feel his blessings in every breath I take. This gathering is my way of saying, Papa, you are remembered, celebrated, and cherished… forever.”
