On Farhan Akhtar's younger daughter Akira's 12th birthday, the actor shared a heartfelt note for her on his Instagram timeline. He accompanied the note with a priceless photo of himself and his daughter, which appears to be from her birthday celebration today. Farhan and Akira can be seen twinning in black outfits in the picture. In the note, Farhan extended his birthday greeting to his daughter and wished that she "never loses the child inside" her. "Age 12 is generally considered to be the end of ones childhood but I wish that you never ever lose touch with the child inside you. The child is precious because she is curious, she is innocent, her smile reaches her eyes, she trusts people, she loves without judgment, she is not afraid to make a mistake and learn from it, she is sensitive to those around her but most of all, she is always herself. No matter what the world wants her to be. Happy birthday Akira. Love you to the moon and back," he captioned the picture.
