Bollywood actor Shahid Kapoor says his father, actor Pankaj Kapur, is a “bit hyper and over-protective” and hoped he doesn’t get these traits from him while bringing up his daughter.

The actor and his wife Mira Rajput welcomed their first daughter in August. Kapoor talked about his father during an appearance on an Vogue BFFs, which will air on Saturday on Colors Infinity, read a statement from the channel.

“I think my dad is a great guy! I don’t think a guy can be that good, to begin with. There are things about him that I think are amazing, there are things about him that I don’t want to be like that with my child,” sdaid the Haider actor. “He is an extremely nice person and he has always been a friend to me, those are the things that I would want. But he’s a bit hyper and he’s a bit over-protective. So, those are the two things that I hope I don’t do to my child.

The actor said that his father tells him he will now understand all the complaints he has been making.

”The one thing my dad keeps telling me is that I don’t call him enough. And I pretty much call him almost every day! But he still always complains about the fact that ‘we don’t connect enough, we don’t spend time enough’ and finally when obviously Misha happened, he told me, ‘Now you will know what it’s like when you miss your child’,” Kapoor said.

Kapoor will soon be seen in Vishal Bhardwaj’s Rangoon and Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Padmavati.
