    Filmmaker David Dhawan has turned a year older on Friday and his son Varun Dhawan has penned a birthday wish for papa dearest on social media.

     

    "Happy birthday papa. You are my No. 1 director," Varun wrote on Instagram along with a photograph that has him posing with David in Bangkok.
