Mumbai: Actor Vicky Kaushal, one of the most celebrated millennial stars in Hindi cinema, recently opened up about fatherhood, legacy and privacy, sharing rare insights into how he views his personal and professional life after welcoming his first child.
Vicky, who recently delivered one of the biggest box office successes of his career with Chhava, attended an award function where he was asked which of his films he would want his son to watch first. Speaking to NDTV, the actor said he would choose his debut film Masaan, though not immediately.
He explained that while Masaan is emotionally intense and may not be suitable for a very young viewer, it reflects life in its rawest form. The film, which released in 2015, marked Vicky’s arrival as a serious actor and earned widespread critical acclaim for its sensitive storytelling and grounded performances.
Beyond cinema, Vicky also spoke candidly about his concerns regarding his son’s privacy, acknowledging the challenges of raising a child under constant public attention. He said that guarding personal space has become even more important after becoming a parent. According to him, privacy must be protected without fear, as fear often invites the very outcomes one wants to avoid.
Vicky stressed that while public scrutiny is part of a celebrity’s life, certain aspects of family life must remain personal and sacred. He said that maintaining distance from the spotlight is a conscious effort, even while accepting that occasional intrusions are inevitable in public life.
Professionally, Vicky Kaushal continues to enjoy a remarkable phase. His recent film Chhava, in which he portrayed Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, emerged as a massive commercial success, grossing over Rs 800 crore worldwide. The performance further reinforced his reputation as an actor capable of combining box office appeal with strong dramatic depth.
Looking ahead, Vicky is preparing for his next major project, Love And War, directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali. The film, slated for release in 2026, will feature him alongside Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt, making it one of the most anticipated projects on the horizon.
On the personal front, Vicky married actor and entrepreneur Katrina Kaif in 2021 in a private ceremony in Udaipur. The couple recently announced the birth of their baby boy on November 7 through social media and have chosen to keep further details, including his name, private for now.
