Recently, Shahid Afridi appeared in a Sama TV podcast hosted by Sawira Pasha. In the podcast, the cricketer spoke fondly about his daughters and grandson.
Talking about Aqsa’s birth, he said, “I was cutting my hair when I heard the news of my first-born.” I was shaking while holding her and felt the same when Ansha came. I am truly blessed to have daughters and grandchildren. Being a father and grandfather is a gift. I consider my grandchildren as my own children. They are all my children. I have seen my life change with the birth of each daughter. My life has improved, and I am very happy and blessed to have five daughters. It is important for a father to spend time with his children. In recent times, the father’s role in raising and guiding children has become more important than that of the mother.” Here is the link to the video:
