While fans love to see Kannada star Yash in his rowdy roles like Rocky Bhai or Surya on the big screen, over the years it has been established that he is a big softie in real life! Especially when it comes to his daughter Ayra and his son, Yatharv, he is a big sweetheart who dotes on them any time he can. Though Yash is grabbing headlines for his upcoming releases ‘Toxic’ and ‘Ramayana,’ the internet is circling back to an old clip from 2019, where he is seen interacting with his daughter Ayra when she was only a few months old.
Yash and his daughter Ayra’s most adorable moment
In 2019, the actor, along with his wife, Radhika Pandit, held a press conference. Though ‘Rocky Bhai’ was the megastar at the table, the actual diva who stole the show was his daughter, Ayra, who had been born only a few months earlier. The actor held his baby girl while answering questions from the paparazzi. Ayra, however, was only concerned about one thing: making sure everyone saw her waving to them.Throughout the press conference, she kept giggling while sitting in her father’s lap, smiling and waving at the media and everyone around her. Yash watched over her with a joyful smile. He continued to laugh and smile at his daughter, who was too busy basking in the attention and making cute noises.This is just one of the glimpses of Yash being an adorable father over the years. He has been quite active on social media about how the family of four spends their time together. In a video that he shared on his Instagram in 2022, the actor turned into a ‘Tiger’ for his children, Arya and Yatharv. In the video, as the trio played around, Yatharv said that he is a big dinosaur and wolf, to which the ‘Ramayan’ actor replied, “Arya and Dada are scared; now Dada is becoming a tiger.”
Yash and Radhika Pandit talk about being parents
Yash and Radhika have often discussed how much they love parenthood and how they manage the oncoming challenges. In an old interview with us, the duo opened up about having children, sharing, “It is a wonderful phase. Kids not only bring a lot of happiness but also a different side of me. I have been enjoying this time with them. In fact, Ayra now has a routine that she has to follow for me. She has become a mother to me—daughters are like that.”He also opened up about his son and some of his adorable habits that the parents deal with. Yash shared, “My son is very demanding. He doesn’t sleep till I sleep. Both Radhika and I have to sleep with him. Even if it is way past his bedtime, he stays awake till we join him. And then, he wakes up at night and can be very loud when he wants to be.”
