Hi fellow RBOians!

Haven't made a topic in a while and saw that nobody had posted anything for Father's Day, so thought i would do something along those lines - and to keep it related to RBO, use this thread as a kind of tribute to our very own Sunil Khandelwal, but also a place for us to post our wishes for our own fathers and what they mean to us etc. 😊
So i'll start by talking about Sunil... for me Sunil is the best father (and in-law) on television right now! His relationship with his sons and DIL's is so touching and real, and Aliraza ji's portrayal of the character is just amazing! 👏 ⭐️
Perfect example of the same is the Shaan-Sunil conversation we got to see in Friday's episode. The pure joy on his face when he see's Shaan name on the caller ID, the look of contentment when hears his voice and the conversation that follows is classic Sunil Khandelwal who encompasses so many traits of being a great father! 😊
He acknowledges Akshay's drive and determination, reassures Shaan that what he is doing is right and a worthwhile cause and knows that with Khanak besides Shaan, he doesn't need to worry because Khanak is the one person who is able to give his son the strength and courage he needs to carry through on his promise! Simple scene, yet it conveyed so much! <3
True, he and Shaan had their issues and he wasn't always there for Shaan during his childhood, but it's hard to blame him for that when he was trying to secure a future for his sons... and i think it adds a realistic element to their relationship too. I can never forget how he stood by Khanak in the earlier episodes too. He also played a big hand in Shanak coming together, so you gotta love him for that alone! 😆
Now onto my father, a man so influential and dear to me that i wrote a poem in his honour! As follows...
The day I was born, I was given a generous gift by God
Everyone's eyes were on me, he just simply looked on
With a blissful smile spread across his contented face
He watched the scene before him, preparing to embrace
A journey that would see him through many highs and lows
A relationship so special that touches the depths of our souls.
There when I took my first step, he held my small hand in his
He gave me the support I needed, a constant from here-on in
That was just the beginning of all he continues to do for me
His love, wisdom and guidance inspire the journey before me
Unparalleled is his kindness, I truly am one of the blessed
To have in my life a father who is undoubtedly the best.
Honestly speaking, words fail me whenever i try to convey what my parent's mean to me, but this was a small attempt by me for my dad! 😳
Would love to hear your thoughts on SK and wishes for your fathers too... 😊

Oh Gosh Ayesha that was beautiful ❤️ that was truly very lovely! So emotional so meaningful <3

I LOVED the poem you wrote for your dad! You and your dad truly share a very special relationship it shows 😳

Sunil has truly been a very strong father! True he made mistakes but he realised them and then proceeded to support his son in all the decisions he took, both emotionally and practically. He is one of the best fathers on National TV! i adore him!

I Just LOVED these lines Ayesha!Waisay toh i can relate the whole poem to my dad as well but these were the bestest lines!! Well done Ayesha you made me all emo all of a sudden! I myself share a very strong bond with my dad he just has to look at my face to understand what is going on in my mind. and vice versa. We have a very strong emotional bond which, you're right, words cannot express!

Happy Fathers Day!!

He gave me the support I needed, a constant from here-on in
That was just the beginning of all he continues to do for me
His love, wisdom and guidance inspire the journey before me

Ok! So Aysh is back from her hiatus and back with a BANG!!😃
What a lovely post, Aysha!
Your thoughts beautifully encompassed together! ⭐️
🤗
Ok! Will go with Sunil Khandelwal first...what a wonderful father and FIL, really!
And portrayed to sheer perfection by Alirazaji!! ⭐️👏⭐️👏
As you rightly mentioned, Sunil's relationship with both Akshay and Shaan has been nothing short of an absolute treat!
His dynamics with Shaan, especially has been multifaceted in the true sense of the word...
From guide, to friend, to philosopher...these terms are not mere cliches when it comes to the Sunil-Shaan equation on display...
If Khanak has been Shaan's greatest strength, the Sunil-Shaan unspoken bond has been nothing short of exemplary either...
From the father son showdown (the issue)...to the father son emotional turmoil (the decision)...to the stoic front, despite it all (the call)...Sunil and Shaan have been through it all...
Noteworthy of mention here, is also the beautiful bond that Sunil shares with Khanak...
Amongst the first of the Khandelwals to have realised her true worth...
To shield her...to care for her...to always be there by her side...
No wonder, he was bestowed with the greatest gift of them all..."Ada"!!!
My most special FIL-DIL scene...the one when Sunil calls Khanak at the hotel room in Pune! What a lovely scene it was...much like their bond...when Khanak says "Main yeh rishta nibhana chahti hoon", Sunil knew right then...the perfect choice was made!!
Ah! Now to my Baba or Bapu as I refer to him fondly!😳
The greatest quality about him...
His simplicity!!
Have not come across a man as simple as him, in my life's journey thus far...
And, in his simplicity lies his strength...of being the bhestest baba in the world!😳😃
Happy Father's Day!!
To all the super duper Dads out there...Sunil Khandelwal, included!😃
Cheers!!
Love,
Dyotona

First of all.. Lovely post.. Now on to the topic.. Yes Sunil khandelwal has been a great father so far.. An obeisance to him for portraying fatherhood so real that the gap between the reel & the real started thinning.. Well you've included all the possible features I cud've figured.. So not making a redandancy.. & as far as fathers are concerned well this space wouldn't be spacious enough to mention even the quarter of their infinite luv.. Fatherhood is most dignified after all..

@Dyo: Thank you! 🤗 😃
On to your reply... lady you never fail to amaze me with your words! Beautifully said! 👏⭐️
Agree with all of it, love the fact that his relationship with his DIL's is equally as strong as his relationship with his sons... i had to mention Khanak because the bond they share is so special! Think it's every woman's dream to be blessed with a FIL like Sunil when they move into their marital home. 😊
Awww your Bapu sounds just like my dad! Love the simplicity in my dad, it's what makes him the man he is. Love that about him! 😳
@sarah_zeen: Completely agree with you about the reel-real comment, i think it's this factor that makes us empathise with him so much!
And yes, no words or amount of space can do justice to their - as you rightly said - infinite love and dignity. Thanks for commenting, loved your take. 😊
@Sonali: Thanks for appreciating hun! 😊
