Bollywood parents are a genre of their own—strict dads with dramatic one-liners, emotional moms who tear up at everything, and the rare cool parent who acts like a best friend. If the zodiac signs ran Indian households, who’s laying down the law, and who’s sneaking extra pocket money?
The Strict Dads
Capricorn
– The ultimate
“Mere ghar ke rules alag hain”
dad. Wake up at 5 AM, study for five hours, and no distractions. Will say
“Aage ka socha hai?”
before every meal.
Virgo
– The
“Log kya kahenge?”
dad. Notices
everything
—bad posture, a missing sock, or a low mark in Moral Science. Finds typos in report cards and lectures about them.
Scorpio
– The
“Beta, sab pata hai mujhe”
dad. No need for spies when this one reads minds. Knows the exact location at all times—without GPS.
The Emotional Moms
Cancer
– The
“Khush rehna beta”
mom. Cries at every milestone, packs extra parathas, and will
never
let anyone sleep hungry. Replies to
every
WhatsApp forward.
Pisces
– The
“Maa hoon, sab mehsoos hota hai”
mom. Believes in vibes, does
nazar utaarna
, and somehow always knows when something’s wrong.
Libra
– The
“Beta, sabse acche se baat karna”
mom. Too sweet to be strict, always trying to keep peace. Will defend bad grades with
“At least personality toh achhi hai”
.
The Cool Moms
Leo
– The
“Beta, main bhi kabhi tumhari umar ki thi”
mom. Understands every pop culture reference, drops Bollywood dialogues like wisdom, and is everyone’s favorite parent at PTMs.
Sagittarius
– The
“Ek baar jeena hai, beta”
mom. Encourages skipping school for a trip. Will randomly decide to get matching tattoos.
Gemini
– The
“Bachpan mein main bhi aisi thi”
mom. Has 200 stories from childhood, gives relationship advice, and somehow knows
all
the school gossip.
The Silent-but-Deadly Dads
Taurus
– Doesn’t yell, just gives
that look
. If the remote is missing, everyone is in danger.
Aquarius
– Says
“Do whatever you want”
, but secretly judges every choice. Can argue about politics for hours but won’t remember birthdays.
Aries
– Reacts first, thinks later. Might ground someone for life but then forgets in two days. Believes in
tough love
—but also in
“Jo hoga dekha jayega”
.
