Jaideep Ahlawat Opens Up About Bridging Generational Gap With His Late Father

New Delhi [India]: Acclaimed actor Jaideep Ahlawat, who recently lost his father Dayanand Ahlawat, reflected on his relationship with him and how he worked to bridge the generational gap between them.

Understanding the Emotional Disconnect

In a heartfelt conversation with media, Ahlawat spoke about how fathers of the older generation, particularly in North India, struggle to express love—whether through words or physical gestures.

“I think everywhere, especially in North India, fathers and their generation hardly know how to express love—neither through words nor physical gestures,” Ahlawat shared.

Parallels with His Role in Paatal Lok

The Paatal Lok actor, who played a tough cop and father to a teenage son, Siddharth Chaudhary (Bodhisattva Sharma), drew parallels between his on-screen and real-life experiences.

“Teenagers like Siddharth in Paatal Lok are lonely and don’t talk much with their mothers. They are going through hormonal changes, and most fathers I have seen only discuss daily expenses or school schedules. We often assume our fathers don’t understand the modern world, but they actually do,” he said.

Taking Responsibility to Bridge the Gap

Ahlawat shared that he soon realized the responsibility of closing the communication gap between him and his father.

“I quickly realized that it was my responsibility to fill this gap. When I returned from college, I started hugging him. At first, he was surprised, but gradually, it became natural. It was my way of making him comfortable expressing love.”

Jaideep Ahlawat’s Personal Loss

Earlier this month, Jaideep Ahlawat lost his father, Dayanand Ahlawat. The actor’s team released an official statement confirming the news:

“We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of Jaideep Ahlawat’s beloved father. He departed for his heavenly abode yesterday, surrounded by family and love.”

Fans and well-wishers poured in condolences on social media, while the actor performed the last rites in his hometown in Haryana.

Jaideep Ahlawat’s Upcoming Projects

On the work front, Ahlawat is currently seen in Season 2 of Paatal Lok. His impressive filmography includes:

  • Gangs of Wasseypur
  • Vishwaroopam
  • Raees
  • Raazi
  • Jaane Jaan
  • Maharaj

He will next be seen in the highly anticipated Family Man 3, starring Manoj Bajpayee, directed by Raj & DK.
