Fathers day

Father’s Day is just round the corner and we’re sure you must have planned out something special for your Pa! After all he’s your hero, who deserves nothing but the best.

But if you have been too busy, we get you some tailor-made ideas for a fun-filled Fathers’ day!

1. Introduce him to technology: If watching TV has been the popular ‘pass time’ for your retired dad off late, its time to introduce him to the world of technology! Gift him the latest gaming console and spend the entire day competing with him. Not only both of you will have a blast but your dad will get that extra dose of happiness and a new techie friend to enjoy time with. Or if your dad loves is an avid surfer, upgrade his old desktop with the all new Sony Viao E series. From watching movies on its Full HD Display to browsing web with its smart Touch button and Quick Web Access that instantly starts surfing without needing to boot up Windows.

2. Pamper your Pa: In all probability, your pa won’t agree to what we are suggesting now. But once you take him for a lavish and pampering spa session, he’ll surely get hooked to the sin. However, if you are a hot and young dad, there’s nothing like indulging in some self-pampering either. What say? We’re sure you’ll love it! Aura Spa at The Park Hotels offer specially designed packages on Father’s day. From Cooling Mango Escape to Face Falooda to the vibrant Chamak Facial ... they have loads on offer for your dad. Another interesting place to be is the Amatrra spa. Their specially designed experiences for complete rejuvenation include therapies like: Tranquility Therapy, Immunity Boost Therapy, Mood Elevation Therapy and more. So it’s time to take your pick!

3. Pa and Pals: If your dad’s busy business schedule has kept him away from his friends for quite some time now, it’s time you make the best of the occasion. On the eve of Father’s Day, organise a surprise get-together with all his friends. (Just make sure you keep him free on the eve – by hook or by crook). He will feel young and fresh all over again.

4. Cheers to your dad : It is said that after a certain age, children and parents become friends. So, how about raising a toast to this friendship on the special day? Set the ambience with great food, wine and your dad’s favourite music! And if your dad is a connoisseur of whisky, gift him the membership of The Scotch Malt Whisky Society. With an initial entry fee of Rs 25,000 for a year, the Society will open your dad to an unexplored world of Rare Whiskies, Limited Edition drinks and lots of exciting events happening at the society that believes in taste and exclusiveness.

5. Walk down memory lane: Take your busy papa to a walk down the memory lane, right in the convenience of his office on his laptop. Dig into your old family albums and scan all the old pics of you and him together. Right from your birth to the special moments you have had together, make a PPT and key-in your thoughts with every slide and e-mail it to him. You’ll manage to make him smile for sure!

6. Show him your world: He has been your guide so far, how about giving him a peek into your world? Make him a part of your gang for a day. Take him along to the places where you hang out with your friends – eating joints, discs and your bird watching addas! Do this at your own risk, as you might just close those doors for yourself! But, we believe that your honest gesture will be appreciated by him and he’ll let you live your life!

7. Partners in fitness: If your dad is a fitness freak, gifting him a membership of a jazzy gym, where both of you can be partners. We have heard that working out with a partner is a great motivation than working out alone. And, the time you guys get to spend together will definitely be the cherry on the cake!
