7 B'wood stars who appeared as child actors in their parents' film

As per Variety, American actor Vin Diesel is going to share screen space with his son in the upcoming 'Fast and Furious' installment.

The actor's 10-year-old son, Vincent Sinclair, will make his acting debut in 'F9' as the younger version of his father's beloved character, Dominic Toretto. According to the report, the actor's son filmed his scenes back in 2019 and reportedly received a daily rate of USD 1,005.

This is not the first time we've seen a major actor and his/her kid in the movie together. Remember 'Pursuit of Happiness' with Will Smith and his adorable little son Jaden Smith?

In Bollywood too, we have spotted our current heartthrobs making an appearance in their parents' movies at a very young age. Here are a few of them who we managed to dig out from the internet.
