 Sanjay Lalwani With Rivaan

In What Ways Does Becoming A Father Change Life?

There is a very strong sense of being responsible and patient. I look forward to going back home, only to run back to the welcoming hug of his. Another major change is that now, I have to be conscious while speaking in front of him – I watch my language with the fear of him picking up things he shouldn’t.

What One Quality Has Rivaan Taken Of Yours – That You Wish He Hadn’t?

Even though he is just 10 months old, he’s already quite a foodie and his taste buds are exactly like mine. He enjoys spicy food and insists on eating from our plates – which isn’t right for him at this age.

What Special Things Do You And Him Do Together?

I love this question – the most special thing I do with him is going out for a drive every morning when his mommy is asleep. I also pray with him and read the Bible to him sometimes which is a very special thing indeed.

How Do You Rate Yourself As A Father?

I’d sound too modest if I say this but my wife rates me 11 out of 10. (smiles) She tells me there is nothing that she as a mother can do that I as a father cannot do.

What Is The Most Difficult Part Of Being A Dad?

The only difficulty and struggle are waking up at night and compromising on sleep. Everything else is pure joy.
