Anupam Kher
Anupam Kher

Anupam Kher has played so many different types of characters over the course of his prolific career, but one of his most popular roles is that of being a dad – and a fun, cool dad at that. He turns 58 today, to celebrate his birthday, I’m sharing with you five of my favourite Anupam Kher “dad” roles – the kind of roles that made you wish he was your dad!

1. Hum Aapke Hain Kaun

I love, love, love the Barjatya brand of family. Anupam Kher kills it in this scene!

2. Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge

Gosh, if only my parents were so receptive about my report cards…

3. Kuch Kuch Hota Hai

Mr. Malhotra’s antics are the best!

4. Bend It Like Beckham

I just really love this movie, guys. Like, a lot.

5. Vivah

One of the best scenes from this film!
