Mumbai, Feb 7 As his twins Roohi and Yash turned eight on Friday, filmmaker Karan Johar said that his biggest achievement is one of being a father to them.
Karan took to his Instagram, where he shared a gamut of adorable pictures posing with his children, whom he said has named them after his parents because he felt it’s “beyond a lineage.”
In the caption section, Karan penned down his emotions. He wrote: “My biggest Achievement is one of being a Father…. I named them after my parents because I felt beyond a lineage or a name an emotion must continue … they are my world!!!”
Calling his twins the “biggest prayers”, he wished Roohi and Yash – happy birthday.
“Happy birthday Roohi and Yash… my biggest prayer for you both is to be Kind always,” he wrote.
