This Daughter’s Day, Kannada superstar swapped his larger-than-life KGF avatar for a softer, heartwarming role that is of a doting dad. The actor surprised fans with a delightful social media post featuring
his daughter Ayra to mark the special occasion and the video quickly went viral for all the right reasons.
In the clip, Yash is seen enjoying a fun and playful moment with little Ayra as she grooves to Soda Pop, the viral K-pop hit from Demon Hunters. As the daughter sings and dances with infectious energy, her superstar dad joins in with an unexpected twist. Instead of sticking to the original lyrics, Yash playfully modified the song, singing, “Dadda, you’re my Soda Pop.”
The lyrics instantly lit up Ayra’s face and she was seen smiling and dancing more enthusiastically. The actor, then, picked her up into his arms, showering her with kisses, making for a precious father-daughter moment. Sharing the video on Instagram, Yash wrote, “Fixed it! Happy Daughter’s Day, my little soda pop.”
Fans couldn’t stop gushing over the adorable father-daughter bond, showering love on them with heartfelt comments and loads of hearts emojis.
