Proud Dad Farhan Akhtar Shares Trailer Of Teenaged Daughter’s Short Film [Watch]

New Delhi: Farhan Akhtar is a super proud dad.

The actor, filmmaker, singer and songwriter’s younger daughter Akira is set to follow in his footsteps at the tender age of 16.

On Saturday, Farhan shared the trailer of Akira’s short film ‘Homesick’.

Giving a shout-out to Akira and team ‘Homesick’, Farhan took to Instagram to pen a detailed note along with the trailer.

“A couple of weeks ago, Akira asked me if some friends could come over to shoot a scene or two for a short film they were doing. Pleasantly surprised and immediately curious, I said yes and asked how many would be coming as crew.. just to have a number in case something needed to be organised for them. She said including the director, it’s a total of 3. Here’s the trailer for ‘Homesick’,” Farhan wrote about the film directed by Ahaan Vaknalli, featuring Akira, Shrutant Ramaswamy and Druva Sawhniey.

“May your love for storytelling last a lifetime. Also, where can we see it? Need details,” Farhan added.

The film will be released on August 15.
