Veteran lyricist Javed Akhtar has turned a year older on Monday. Marking his birthday, his son and actor Farhan Akhtar posted a throwback picture of Javed Akhtar standing and staring at the sea. Alongside the image, Farhan penned a sweet birthday message.

"This is how I`ve always known you to be .. thoughtful, restless, curious and always searching for what`s beyond the obvious. Hope you realise how many you`ve inspired to try and live that way. Happy birthday Pa..@jaduakhtar," he captioned the post.
