Genelia shared a throwback photo from her wedding day, in which she and her father-in-law are seen hugging each other. Across the photo, she wrote, “Pappa,” followed by a green heart emoji. Genelia got married to Vilasrao Deshmukh’s son and actor Riteish Deshmukh on February 3, 2012. For the uninitiated, politician Vilasrao Deshmukh died in August 2012 due to multiple organ failures.
Here’s the photo that Genelia D’Souza shared:
On May 26, on Vilasrao Deshmukh’s birth anniversary, Genelia shared a photo of her late father-in-law and it was captioned as “To the greatest man I know. Dearest Pappa, every year on your birthday, we hope we would get just one more chance to celebrate you and that’s something that will always be a miss in our lives but it’s so special to hear the kids say “My Ajoba is the greatest” even though they have never met you, I sometimes think some bonds are just meant to be and it redefines just having to meet or see people every day, it’s one of the hearts, one of a connection that we just can’t comprehend. Thank you for making us feel your presence every day Pappa, I know it’s you saying “I will always be there”. Happy Birthday Pappa Vilasrao Deshmukh.”
