Filmmaker Arbaaz Khan, son of legendary writer Salim Khan, says his father has always been his "role model" and he wishes to pass on some of his qualities, which he has also imbibed, to his son.

"My father has been inspirational and he has also been a role model for me. I kind of try to emulate him in every possible way and try to walk along his foot steps," Arbaaz said.

He was speaking here Tuesday at a Gillette initiative - Because You Are A Role Model.


"There are so many things that I have imbibed from him, learned from him. I wish some of the qualities that he has and I have, I can pass them on to my son," said the filmmaker, who is married to Malaika Arora Khan and they have a son together.

Arbaaz is currently busy with his upcoming production "Dolly Ki Doli" that features Sonam Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao.
