On November 19, 1928, a little boy was born in a Jat Sikh family in the village of Dharmuchak, Punjab but not even the most dignified seers could predict that one day this little boy is going to turn into a giant, who will be loved by billions of people out there. Many years had passed in a spin, and the boy had become a man now, 6 feet 2 inches giant in the proper description and his name was Dara Singh Randhawa, a wrestler-turned-actor.

Recently, we stumbled upon a rare picture of Dara Singh Randhawa and his wife, late Surjit Kaur sitting with four of their six children. In the picture, the young father looked like a rock, and his trademark smile freshens the memory of all those glorious years when he used to entertain us with his wrestling and acting. Also, we can spot his beautiful wife, Surjit Kaur, who smiles for the camera, while holding one of their daughters. Other than this sweet little girl, we can also spot two handsome boys standing on their father's side and a gorgeous daughter standing behind Surjit ji. There's no denying to the fact that all the kids have their father's eyes and their mother's smile.

Among all the children in the picture, the one, who is standing right in the middle is Vindu Dara Singh, who is quite popular in comparison to others and had talked and revealed a lot of things about his father in tons of interviews. For instance, in an interview with TellyChakkar back in 2012, Vindu had talked about his siblings. He had said, "We are 5 siblings,…actually 6. My father has a son from another marriage. His first marriage happened when he was barely 14. My half-brother has always been a part of the family. He was there for all the rituals after my father's death. In deference to my father's wish, my half-brother has always been a part of the family. He will remain so."
Going further in the same interview, Vindu had revealed how his whole family was smiling instead of mourning while remembering him after his father's demise. He had stated, "My father was a genuinely good human being. He is the only person besides Pran Saab—and he comes second—about whom no one has anything bad to say. That's why we aren't mourning his going away. We're all sitting and smiling and even laughing, remembering what a wonderful human being Dad was. On Thursday after the funeral, Anil Kapoor dropped in at home. Someone suggested we should stop the jovial mood. Who kya sochega? But I said, 'Let's feel the way we feel and behave the way we feel'. My father went after living a full life." (You May Also Like: Rare Photo Of Vinod Khanna Playing With His Kids, Akshaye Khanna And Rahul Khanna At The Beach)

At the end of his interview, Vindu had gone a little bit emotional and had revealed how supportive his father was throughout his life to all his children and had encouraged them to do what they love and dream of doing. He had said, "I am proud to be Dara Singh's son. He was very proud of me, especially after I won on Bigg Boss and started getting good work and making good money. He always encouraged his children to do what we wanted, never stopped us from doing anything. We were all allowed to fail once in our class exams. Because we had the freedom to fail, we never did. He encouraged me to have my drinks at home, rather than go out and drink in public places. In fact, on the night before he passed away, we shared a drink together."
