By drawing parallels between the art of storytelling and a father’s wisdom, this tribute beautifully showcases the enduring impact of paternal guidance.

    The creatively illustrated comic strips emphasize the unwavering desire of fathers to ensure the best for their children and showcase how fatherly advice has evolved over time yet remains rooted in the constant desire for their children’s well-being and success. The campaign invites learners to share personal stories and anecdotes capturing the profound values passed through generations.

    Hero Vired founder and CEO Akshay Munjal commented, “Father’s Day honours the endless efforts and selfless contributions of all fathers. At Hero Vired, we get to witness and celebrate fathers who embrace the journey of upskilling – setting a powerful example for their children. By continuously enhancing their skills and embracing lifelong learning, these fathers demonstrate that upskilling brings lasting rewards and endless opportunities.”

    Karan, a learner from the gaming and esports program, commented, “I never imagined my dad would support my decision to pursue an unconventional profession like gaming. Yet, he once advised me to follow the path I felt was right for me, and that advice changed my life. It taught me to trust myself and be confident in my choices. Gaming is the direction I want to pursue, and I owe it all to my father. While we often give very little credit to our fathers, I believe they play a significant role in shaping who we become.”
