- top five fathers
The Indian society as is common knowledge is largely male dominated. Apart from a few urban pockets, rural India still goes by what the man in the family says. Television shows are supposed to depict what goes on in our society, and it has been doing so too. However, delve a bit deeper and you will find a very interesting pattern. Indian television has produced more famous mothers and mothers-in-law than fathers or fathers-in-law. A Tulsi Virani or Parvati Agarwal is far more famous than the fathers-in-law they had. Ditto for a Baa or the ubiquitous Dadi in any serial. She has far more impact than the Dadajis in Indian television.
TellyChakkar makes an attempt to give the 'father figures' of Indian television their due. You have read many articles on the top five daughters-in- law or mothers-in-law. But this is perhaps the first to attempt at selecting the top five fathers on Indian television!
Aditya, Aap Ki Antara: The character of Aditya is completely different from the others in this list. The only similarity, perhaps, being the extra marital affair he had out of which an autistic child Antara was born. Played by Darshan Pandya, Aditya is a metrosexual man of today's urban life. He takes care of his children, helps his wife in household chores, has a good job and also desperately tries to strike the right balance in the family. A fantastic script, unique concept, and powerful portrayal of the character has made Aditya one of the most loved fathers on Indian television in the recent past. In the coming days, his popularity is only expected to skyrocket with the show scaling new TRP heights every week.
