Actor Irrfan Khan celebrates Father’s Day with his son Ayaan in Ahmedabad

Father’s Day is a day to honour fathers and celebrate fatherhood. This year, on this special day, Irrfan Khan wants to introduce his son to the Father of the Nation, Mahatma Gandhi. The actor strongly believes in what Gandhiji stood for. Mahatma Gandhi had driven all the major activities of independence as well as upliftment of the society from the Sabarmati Ashram in Ahmedabad. He stayed in the ashram for many years before he finally proceeded for a march to Dandi to break the salt law on 12 March 1930. Irrfan Khan wants to take his 11 year old son to this serene vicinity. Irrfan also promoted his upcoming Film Madaari. Madaari is a story which could happen to anyone but the means may differ to meet the end. The film stars Irrfan Khan, Vishesh Bansal, Jimmy Shergill, Tushar Dalvi and Nitesh Pandey in the main cast and is scheduled for release on July 15 2016.
