His birthday message was both playful and loving. Alongside the clip, he wrote, “Happy Birthday My Jaana. It’s moments like these that I love you the most. May you always be happy and your tummy always full. I feed you to see you dance like this. Will always be there to NOT tell you there’s food all over your face. I love you, my wife. #BiwiNo1.”
