I think as a professional athlete you are made up very differently mind, body and spirit. So it has been a huge advantage to have him, where he has had those experiences life that he has guided me and my sister so much. Yet at the same time not imposing on us, but more as who has an experience and in giving his children advice. Then it's really been up to us if we have had to listen to him earlier on or we you know had his course at the back of our mind, he has still gone through what we have gone through in our life because sometimes we need to go through our own learning perks and then reflect back and say oh! yeah, dad was right. So it's either way, but it depends on the situation. I think largely it definitely has you know I think there is a lot of his role in teaching, learning, above all of that he has been a huge influence in my life, my success especially".


When asked about how she has been a contributor to her family, Deepika shares, "Yes, especially my father. In some ways he is quite fixated about doing things a certain way. But if Anisha and I have a different perspective, dad doesn’t dismiss it. He is more than happy to have a conversation with us. His keeness to learn is amazing!"

I hope haven't disappointed him in the last couple of years, in terms of my film choices but I don't think that he will never see wrong in something that I have done. He'll always see something good only in what I have done. Like Ohh this was entertaining. The critics in the house are my mum and my sister, my sister especially".

When asked about the one special thing Deepika and her dad does together, the actress shares, "One thing that brings immense joy to him is to see me relaxed no work tension, no telephone calls. Our idea of a special outing is to just sit and talk. Those moments are precious because gems come out of that.
