Tusshar Kapoor: I believe in good and bad fortune
"Dad (Jeetendra) shares a close relationship with both his grandsons. Despite old age, he gives his proper time to them. He often pays a visit to my son's school. He plays with them...I would say that he is reliving his fatherhood phase. He becomes extremely happy in the presence of his grandchildren," Tusshar shared.
Tusshar became father to Laksshya in 2016. He welcomed him via surrogacy. His sister and renowned producer Ektaa R Kapoor is also a single parent.
