Wooples wish their Dads on Father’s Day
Dads are an extremely under-appreciated lot. They work very hard. They make many sacrifices (we never get to know about most of them). And when we got in trouble, they always bailed us out.
They tried their best to make sure to we had a happy childhood. No matter what, he’s always cool and will continue to be. And never forget that,
- He is the original hipster!
- He made the mustache look awesome.
- He is the first complete man in your life.
A week back, to celebrate Father’s Day, we asked our Wooples to share a photo of them together with their dad - preferably from back in the day - and tell us the one thing they love most about him. We then made Polaroid photo-quotes and snail mailed it to them well in advance so they could give it to their dads on D-Day. This was one opportunity for all of us to tell our dads how much we care about and love them.
We received many (pre-instagrammed!) photos and we mailed close to fifty customised Father’s Day greeting cards on Thursday evening. Here are a few we had snail-mailed…

Both.
I’m Daddy’s li’l princess and Mumma’s angel :)

RJ Sriram Sullia talks about his Super Dad!
The Wooplr “Super Dad” series is brought to you in celebration of Father’s Day 2013.
Interview
Tell us a bit about yourself
Hey Guys! My name is Sriram Sullia and I DO RADIO. I host the Morning Show on Indigo 91.9. I’m a proud Bangalorean; Josephite, Jainite and a Christite. I love my Sports, travel, bikes, music, and food! I started out working with All India Radio (AIR) for fuel money and here I am “In the Wonderful World of Radio” doing my gig from the last 5 years.
If your dad was a superhero, what would be his superpower?
Dad’s a bit of Cleanliness freak. He’s always tracing things to where it belongs, switching off the lights when electricity is being wasted, turning off water from a running pipe, ensuring each piece of thrash goes into the right dustbin … So Yeah, I’d imagine him to be the man with Green Hair who comes flashing out “when your powers combined” – Capt. Planet – And his super power would sure be to make me fold my own clothes.

What’s the best piece of advice he’s given you?
I actually carry a little piece of paper in my wallet dated 24th Feb 2011; when I wrote down 3 statements he had made that make a lot of sense to me.
- Happiness is a state of Mind.
- Pursue excellence & the rest shall follow.
- Soak a new art each day. Learn.
If you could take him anywhere for an entire day, where would you go and what would you do?
It would be to the Lords Cricket Stadium, the home of Cricket or MCG (Aus). Two sports buffs just immersed in intense cricket talk enjoying a day of test match.
If you could buy any car for your dad, which one would it be?
He’s a sedan guy. And he loves Mercedes as a brand. So I’d go with an S class or a Maybach.
Sriram sporting some fancy shoes!
Which is his favourite sport?
Cricket! Cricket! Cricket! For any other ball game he says why do so many people run behind one silly ball – Give them one each and peace is restored it seems.
Mention one thing you love most about your dad
His patience and temperament. The man is cool as cucumber no matter what the situation. He’s Calm, Collected and he Chills like a Villain you know…
Is there a gene that you are very glad to have gotten from your dad?
The sense of humor is a Sullia trait! He is sarcastic, witty and good with all the snide remarks…something I defiantly see in myself.
One thing you hope to see your dad do in the future
Quit smoking dad! He says “Its so easy, that he’s done it a thousand times already!” O_O
