Jafri added, “He guided me like a father in the first spell when I was super nervous. Our track was about the gaps that exist in father-son relationships. These gaps can be caused by misunderstandings, differences in perspectives or even lack of communication.”
“Try having open and honest conversations with your father. Share your thoughts, feelings, experiences with him and encourage him to do the same. Spend quality time together doing activities you both enjoy. Show appreciation and support to each other before it’s too late,” he urged his fans.
