Genelia Deshmukh posted a sweet birthday tribute to her father, Neil D Souza. She shared several playful photos from a recent shoot with him. The actress wrote that she always wants to remain her daddy's little girl. She said a father holds his daughter's hand when she is young and always has her back when she grows up. Genelia thanked him for choosing her as his daughter.
Her husband, Riteish Deshmukh, also posted a birthday message online. He shared pictures with Neil, Genelia, and their sons. Riteish wrote that his father-in-law taught him to face hard challenges with a smile. He thanked Neil for inspiring him to become a better person and wished him good health.
On the work front, Genelia's next major film is a historical drama titled Raja Shivaji. It is scheduled for a global multilingual release in early May 2026. The production built huge sets to recreate 16th-century Maharashtra. She is also part of a horror comedy directed by Ram Gopal Varma. That project will feature her alongside actor Manoj Bajpayee for the first time.
