Imran Khan is looking forward to the arrival of one of the guests for his engagement ceremony celebration in January 2010. It is none other than his biological father, Anil Pal, who will be coming from the US to be with Imran for the celebration.

Imran is even happier because this is the first time his father will be part of any important event of Imran's life. Imran will be getting engaged to longtime girlfriend Avantika Malik in the third week of January.

Imran and Avantika got exchanged rings a few months ago in a close family ceremony but his father was absent then. So now that Imran is hosting a grand party, his father is one of the primary guests.

The young actor is very close to his father; having moved to California to live with him and studied there till his high school.

His father visits Imran and his mother, Nuzhat, everytime he is in India. He shares a friendly relationship with Nuzhat and is waiting to be a part of his son's engagement. He likes Avantika a lot.

The news was confirmed by Imran's spokesperson.
