The theme and behaviours of dads in this list is so common that you will quickly find out the type which your father resonate with. Read on!

1. The Daddy Cool

This type of dads is the coolest from the rest. They are always ready to relive their childhood. Though they may be double of their daughters' age, you won't find any sign of curtailing of enthusiasm in them. Always ready to give a shot to new things, dance till they drop, chill out like teenagers with their tots, and the best pop to talk about difficult situations or adult conversations.

2. The Work is Everything Dad

For this type of dad, a mobile phone is his truest love and work is bigger than any religion. Even at the most special day of his daughter, you will definitely find his face buried in checking trivial e-mails. He will barely make any effort in saying hello to the guests unless he finds a networking opportunity.

He may not be the right person to talk about how to manage life after marriage, but he surely knows how to manage the career and personal life still being the workaholic dad.

3. The Outrageously Sanskari Dad

Remember the super Sanskari Babu Ji Aloknath from Bollywood movies? His ultimate aim is to hold the entire family together and preach all the sanskars which have been transferred to him by his ancestors. If any ritual goes wrong in the wedding, he will wreak havoc on the entire family, and trust us, it's hard to convince the Sanskari Babu Ji at that time.Don't Miss >> Wedding Outfits for Mother of Bride

Hey, is this wallet yours or mine? Where the hell did I put my phone? Oh! it's in my hand. If your dad displays similar behavior, congratulations! your dad falls under the category of absent-minded pops. Be careful when handling your essential to your dad. He will wander off with your stuff, and may get lost of it; even though he doesn't mean to do it.

Trust us brides, he is not the right choice to take after wedding advice, especially for the shopping.

5. The Overprotective Popsy

Still remember the summer camp scene of Kuch Kuch Hota Hain movie? When little Anjali was constantly arguing with her dad(SRK) to go to summer camp, and he was giving the lame reason like she will get a cold. Shah Rukh Khan is the kind of dad who is quite overprotective for his daughter.

6. The Geeky Dad

Here is the type of Know it all dad who is always ready to throw any advice related to any segment, all you have to do is just ask. Don't you dare to bring the topics of politics, government future plans, and the world economy in front of him?

He is often found reading the business newspapers and entrepreneurial magazines.

We can clearly remember the one, Raju Rastogi's dad from 3 idiots movie who is perennially ill, and her mom constantly tells her plight story to everyone who steps in the home.

All of his stories start with "Isse accha to Bhagwaan mujhe utha le."

10. The Biased Dad

India majorly comprises patriarchal societies, and most of the dads prefer to have a male child over a girl. As soon as the girl takes the first breath, her father starts ignoring her and continues to bring pain in her life. His absence is desperately felt by the daughter, and broken relationship between them can't be hidden even in the public.
