New Delhi [India], January 23 : India all-rounder Hardik Pandya on Saturday paid a touching and emotional tribute to his father, who had passed away last week.

The song "Apne To Apne Hote Hain" from the Bollywood movie 'Apne' in the background of the video shows the deep pain Hardik is going through at the moment.
On January 17, Hardik penned a poem for his dad, saying that he will miss his father's presence each day in his life.
Taking to Twitter the all-rounder wrote, "My daddy as I said to your yesterday Your last one ride. Now rest in peace my king You were a Happy soul! I will miss you everyday dad Love you always."
Meanwhile, Hardik is gearing up for his return into the Test squad. Earlier this month, the all-rounder resumed training for the England series.

The all-rounder was last seen in action in the three-match T20I series between India and Australia on Australian soil.
