The 45-year-old actor chose to return with this movie because he found the subject intriguing.
"Films like these don't get made very often and such stories need to be told. I will be seen essaying the role of a father in the film," he said in a statement.
"Dear Dad" is a bittersweet coming-of-age story of a father and his 14 year old son. The father-son duo embark on an impromptu road trip from their home, in Delhi, to Mussorie where the son attends boarding school.
