Johnnie Walker hosted an exclusive soiree (attended by BossLady- MissMalini too) to celebrate a father’s unmatched guidance and inspirational role in an individual’s life. The evening saw John Abraham present a fitting tribute to his father Abraham John, as they came together for the unique campaign – #DateWithDad. The amazing host, Boman Irani, created the perfect atmosphere for John and his dad to reminisce about some of their most precious moments.

John related to the campaign and appreciated the thought behind it saying this about the concept:

I admire my father for shaping me into the man I am today. We don’t get to thank our fathers enough and I strongly believe that time is the most powerful gift you can give your father. The JOHNNIE WALKER BLUE LABEL #DATEWITHDAD is a great platform to share some rare time with your father.

As part of this campaign, three winners were selected for a specially curated Johnnie Walker Blue Label experience along with the chance to dedicate a special message to their father. The winners shared these moments with the audience, and then won a luxurious Johnnie Walker Blue Label gift hamper.

In a candid moment with MissMalini, John opened up about the importance of family values, and how everyone should make an effort to spend more quality time with their parents. He also revealed his favourite way of celebrating Father’s Day is watching football with the best sports commentator around… his dad *aww*.
