"I think he has felt very parental towards me also because he changed my diapers", Ishaan Khattar on Shahid

Actor Ishaan Khattar shares a great relationship with brother Shahid Kapoor and we have often witnessed the brothers expressing their love and extending their support towards each other. 

Ishaan recently opened up on his bond with him and recalled some fun memories. He said, “He is the person who grounds me. He is a very rooted, grounded person. And he is very deep. It's a very big part of who he is.” He also revealed Shahid's nickname and added, “We joke about it a lot, I call him 'Baba Sasha', but it's who he is and he is that one person in my life who is like a consistent male figure who has always kept me in check. I think he has felt very parental towards me also because he changed my diapers. He was nearly 15 years old when I was born and he didn't have an elder sibling. So he was that sibling for me. He is very much the quintessential elder brother in many ways. But he is also young at heart so we have a very unique relationship.”

Ishaan also shares a close bond with Shahid's kids Misha Kapoor and Zain Kapoor. When asked about spoiling them as their uncle, Ishaan shared, “Of course, who wouldn't? So they have a lot of fun with me, I think. But, they are very smart kids. They are extraordinarily smart. Sometimes I can't believe the conversations I am having with them, specially Misha. They seem too smart for their age. I think what's remarkable for me is not just the IQ but when the kid is emotionally intelligent enough to feel or sense what an adult is feeling and try to correlate…that's just… bizarre to me. I learn a lot from them. I dote on them. I try not to (spoil them) because they have very good parents so I don't feel the pressure…”
