Father's Day, a special occasion that celebrates the love and influence of fathers, transcends borders and unites people in honouring the important role that fathers play in our lives.

Actor and director Adnan Siddiqui had an amusing anecdote to share – a legacy of his dad that he has carried through. “Abba and his love for mangoes— During those summer days, the fragrance of ripe mangoes would fill the air, mingling with the laughter and stories shared among us. We would sit closely, savouring each delicious bite. Through this simple act, abba instilled in us the values of generosity, compassion, and the importance of creating joyful memories together,” he captioned the post.
Siddiqui exclaimed how those “precious moments” with his dad shaped his character. “Now, as a tribute to my abba, I carry forward his tradition of bringing people together over mangoes, my way of nurturing those connections, to create an atmosphere where love, laughter, and the spirit of togetherness can flourish,” he added. “With each shared mango, I hope to pass down my father's lessons, reminding others of the beauty that lies in unity and the power of small gestures to forge lasting bonds. In honor of his memory, I strive to keep his legacy alive, spreading the sweetness of love, just like the mangoes he used to share.”
Concluding, he asked his fans about the same. “What legacy of your father are you passing on?”
