My entire family, starting from Ammaji to Aapaji, to Sahib, and to me, we've watched him grow from a tiny toddler into the remarkable person he is today. I still remember when Nargis Aapa would come to our house for functions, and he would accompany her, this cute, good-looking kid.&rdquo;</p>
<p>The actress continued, &ldquo;Nargis Ji would then shake his hands and say, &lsquo;Chalo, Saira Ji ko bolo tum kya bolte ho mujhe?&rsquo; And then Sanju would look at me and say, "Main Shaila Banu se shaadi karunga" in a cute little voice. Hahahah, so adorable! I believe Sharmila Tagore and I were the top favourites of Sanju. &lsquo;Many hands make light work&rsquo;, and we've all cherished being part of his journey.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Saira expressed that Sanjay holds a special place in her heart, concluding with, &ldquo;With all my love and blessings, I wish him a very happy birthday.&rdquo;</p>
