Senior Indian cricketer Shikhar Dhawan recently opened up about his relationship with his son Zoravar. Notably, after his separation with Ayesha Mukherjee, Dhawan has been forced to stay away from his son. Dhawan revealed that he wrote a post on his son's birthday last year with a hope that he might end up reading it. The 38-year-old talked at length about his relationship with son and his emotions in a latest episode of a podcast.

"I was not in pain. I was just expressing my thoughts. It has been five months, since I have spoken to him, I was just expressing emotions. I am an emotional guy and I was just trying to send love to him, because If i will be sad while thinking about him that negative energy will got him," he told Humans Of Bombay.

"I never realized that this post will go viral. I just wrote it from my heart. I wrote it with a hope that in an era of technology my son might end up reading my post," he said.

"Wherever he is, I hope he is happy hopefully one day he would come and seem me. I am in love with him but at the same time I am also detached. I don’t want to push him," the left-handed batter who will be leading Punjab Kings (PBKS) in IPL 2024 said.
