Bollywood actor Neha Dhupia took to Twitter to wish her father-in-law Bishan Singh Bedi on his 74th birthday. Sharing a picture of Bishan Bedi with his granddaughter Mehr Dhupia Bedi, Neha captioned the post, “Dad you really are the finest, purest and bravest .... #happybirthday dad @BishanBedi dher saara pyaar.” She ended the post with the hashtag #guruMehrkarein which means that May the Lord show benevolence. Neha’s daughter is also named Mehr.

Bishan can be seen wearing an orange kurta while Mehr is wrapped in a white overall. The picture looks old as Mehr, who will turn two-year-old in November, looks a few months old in the picture.

Bishan is a former cricketer and became the captain of the Indian test cricket team in 1976. Bishan led team India in 22 test matches. He was a left-arm spin bowler and took 266 wickets in test cricket matches. He has a total score of taking 1560 wickets in 370 matches in first-class cricket. He started his career at the age of fifteen playing for domestic cricket leagues. Bishan was first selected to play for the national test cricket team in 1966 against West Indies.

Birthday wishes are pouring in for the former cricketer who is responding to the tweets of his friends and fans. Bishan is followed by over 88,000 people on Twitter.
