In 2021, Aparshakti Khurana and his wife Aakriti welcomed their daughter Arzoie into their lives. Often on social media, Aparshakti is seen sharing his ‘dad moments’ – from posting videos of the baby to posing for a family picture wearing matching pyjamas!

However, this time, Aparshakti Khurana decided to get up, close and personal in a heartfelt letter to his daughter. He took to Instagram to post the letter where he expressed how his life has become like a “Bollywood movie” and that now he realises what the word ‘family’ means.
Here’s what the letter read:
Dear Arzoie, life feels like a feel-good Bollywood movie since the day you were born. Because of you, I know what it feels like to have your dream come true. Because of you, I understand the word ‘Family’ a little better. Arzoie, you are too little to understand this right now, but Paapoo promises to be with you through thick and thin. Through successes and failures. Through ‘I should get a haircut’ and ‘Oh no! Why did I get a haircut?’. Zuzu, no matter how much you grow and who you grow up to be, you will always be my little one. You see, it’s only now that I understand what your grandparents mean when they say ‘maa-baap ke liye bacche humesha, bacche hi rehte hain’. P.S. It feels amazing to see you sleep in my arms when I sing Arziyan Saari Mai Chehre Pe Likh Ke Laya Hoon. Is it the power of music? Or is it my voice that makes you go ”I’d rather be asleep than listen to this”! So, you legit go. With love and only love, Your Paapoo.”
Titled ‘Letter to my daughter’, here’s a look at the pretty letter:
“Being blessed by a baby girl has been the biggest blessing of my life,” he wrote on Instagram.
