Father’s Day Special: Neil Bhatt Says, “I Want to Set the Right Example for Child Actors I work with”

As audiences watch him navigate the challenges of fatherhood on-screen in Mr. and Mrs. Parshuram, Neil Bhatt has found himself reflecting on the deeper meaning of being a father figure. While his character shoulders the responsibilities of guiding and protecting his children, the experience has also given him a greater appreciation for the values, patience, and quiet strength that define fatherhood. This Father’s Day, Neil opens up about the special bond he shares with his young co-stars, the lessons they have taught him along the way, and why he believes it is important to set the right example for the child actors he works with.

This Father’s Day, Neil Bhatt reflects on the lessons of fatherhood and the special bond he shares with his on-screen children in Mr. and Mrs. Parshuram*. _“Father’s Day always reminds me of the quiet strength, patience, and unconditional love that fathers bring into our lives. Playing a father in Mr. and Mrs. Parshuram has given me a deeper appreciation for that role. Sharing screen space with my on-screen children, Raanav & Mahi, has been one of the most rewarding parts of this journey. Their innocence, honesty, and boundless energy are a constant reminder that children value your presence more than anything else. Through our scenes together, I’ve realised how important it is to be patient, attentive, and fully present in the moment. Also, how it’s said that children who grow up in the industry usually mature early. I want to make sure that children who I work with get to learn the correct way to deal with the industry. In many ways, this experience has also made me reflect on my own father and appreciate the countless sacrifices and life lessons that often go unnoticed when we’re growing up. Today, I value those memories and teachings more than ever.”
