It’s a tale of fathers and kids. The father-child relationship can be complex and indeed, a lot of effort goes into it. How is this equation in tinsel town?

In Bollywood this father-kid jodi works wonders — be it reel life or real life. Of late, this phenomenon has hogged the limelight and we have seen clicks of some hot-shot papa-kid jodis.

While the blockbuster opening of ‘Happy New Year’ was doing the rounds, media swirled around to focus on Shah Rukh Khan’s youngest son AbRam. We saw the little one’s first silver screen appearance in this movie, at the credits in the end. And, it sure did garner a lot of positive reactions. The Badshah of Bollywood, SRK could not be happier with AbRam’s cameo in ‘HNY’!

Among reactions, the best compliment came from his co-star Deepika Padukone. Agreeing that AbRam is looking adorable in the film, SRK disclosed to reporters during the film’s success party, “The best compliment I got was from Deepika. She said she wants to do her next film with him (AbRam) as she finds him adorable.”

With so many star kids hitting the headlines in filmistaan, moviegoers eagerly wait for other star kids to join in. Yes, they are far too young right now, but it’s only a matter of time before offers land at their doorstep.

Another blessed baby boy is Azad Rao Khan, son of Amir Khan, who never hid any information about his surrogate baby Azad, and in fact, Aamir and his wife even went ahead and released their pictures with Azad. A doting father, Aamir was seen holding the baby on many an occasion. Recently, Azad was part of the celebrity cricket match organized by his daughter Ira.

Now, with the unfortunate parting of ways between super hunk Hrithik Roshan and wife Sussanne Roshan, the kids were in the spotlight. Fact is, both Hrehaan and Hridhaan have inherited their parents’ good looks. Backed by a surname like Roshan, they could just be the future star kids on the block!

Madhuri Dixit’s family has been in the news, ever since she moved back to India from the US. Her two boys have been kept away from the media glare, but everyone is super curious. Perhaps, it won’t be long before we see Arin and Raayan make their Bollywood debut!

Not only sons, daughters are not so far behind! Everything about Aaradhya Bachchan has been under wraps — a mystery from the time she was born! Her name was revealed, when the mounting curiosity regarding Big B’s granddaughter literally hit the roof! When she made her first public appearance, the world looked up. One can speculate that with a glorified surname as Bachchan, Aaradhya would not have to go the extra mile — to make her mark in Bollywood. After all, she’s the daughter of one of the most beautiful women in the world!

Akshay Kumar’s daughter is another star kid to watch out for. Totally a ‘family’ man, it is not surprising to see Akshay speak very fondly about his daughter, Nitara Khanna. Point to be noted is that he has kept her celebrated grandfather Rajesh Khanna‘s surname for his little daughter!

Yes, the world is watching. After seeing the line of star kids who have recently hit the headlines, perhaps, it won’t be long before these kids grow up and blaze the screen. Will they follow their parent’s footsteps? We need to wait and see…
