On the occasion of his daughter Trishala Dutt's birthday on Tuesday, Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt penned a heartfelt message for her.
Taking to his Instagram account, the 'Khal Nayak' star shared a childhood picture of Trishala, where Sanjay is seen holding his firstborn in his arms.
"Life gave me the most wonderful gift in the form of you when I became a father," he captioned the post.
Since Trishala lives in New York, Sanjay talked about their long-distance relationship.
"Even though you live so far away, we know that our bond has just been growing stronger. Happy Birthday, my little girl, @trishaladutt!" he added.
Sanjay's wife Maanayata Dutt dropped heart emojis in the comments section of the post. Later Maanayata too wished Trishala on her Instagram story which was later shared by the birthday girl.
Trishala even gave glimpses from her birthday celebration in LA with her doting dat Sanjay Dutt. The actor flew to US to be with his daughter on her birthday. Trishala shared a small video of Sanjay and his friend Paresh Gehlani on her Instagram story as she enjoyed a drive with them and later a video of her father from the birthday lunch in LA.
Trishala is the daughter of Sanjay and late actor Richa Sharma. Sanjay and Richa tied the knot in 1987. However, within two years of the marriage, Richa was diagnosed with a brain tumour and died in New York in December 1996.
