These/this are bunny parents (Shivani and Sanjay), remember when Kabir goes out for god knows how many trips. But even though he visits back home late at night, his parents were patient with him. He stays awake until he arrives home and even brings the best backpack for his trips. Well, this cute couple has made our hearts a little fuzzy with warmth. His step-mom was not brutal or rude. Infact she was the first one to hug Kabir when he lost his father.

Bareilly Ki Barfi, will be loved for their father and daughter bond. He is not even near the representation of a brown Indian father, that is what makes this movie unique! Father (Narrotam) and daughter (Bitti) share a bond which is truly rare to find in real life. An Indian father who shares cigarettes and rants, while ranting on his life problems. This Indian father does not enforce on her daughter the idea of marriage, supports her daughter.
