Reflecting on his experience as a father to two daughters, Abhinav expressed, "Daughters are sensitive, expressive, and emotionally intelligent. I cherish the playtime we share, filled with innocent questions, genuine smiles, and heartfelt protests." He humorously noted that fatherhood has made him more 'domesticated.'

When asked about his expectations of fatherhood, Abhinav shared that he had a realistic perspective, having observed his twin nephew and niece grow up. He noted, "The initial days were challenging due to sleep deprivation, but the joy my daughters bring is indescribable."

I am thankful to my father for his guidance and to my daughters for enriching my life with joy." He concluded by summarizing fatherhood in three words: 'loving the journey.'
