Hook: Bollywood's new dad, Vicky Kaushal, just proved that stardom and diaper duty can coexist — and his first public words since becoming a father are as warm and grounded as his on-screen performances. [2] Vicky Kaushal stepped out for his first event after the birth of his son and opened up about how fatherhood has reshaped him, calling it "magical" and the most *grounding* experience of his life[2]. The actor—who, along with wife Katrina Kaif, welcomed their baby boy in November—said that while he expected emotional highs, the reality has been a steadying, transformative chapter that tops his milestones for 2025[2]. This public appearance was full of quiet grace: he thanked photographers with folded hands and even teased that he'll soon reveal their son's name[1][4]. Why this matters to fans and the industry - Humanizing a superstar: Vicky's candidness reduces the distance between celebrity persona and personal life, showing fans a softer, more relatable side of a major star[2][4]. - A shift in priorities: Despite a bustling career — including a blockbuster year with Chhaava and big projects lined up — Vicky's emphasis on fatherhood signals how personal milestones can reframe professional choices and public image[1][2]. - Parenting as craft: Vicky joked about being "better at changing diapers than acting" at the event, a lighthearted comment that highlights how celebrities often redefine masculinity by embracing caregiving roles in public[2]. What he actually said (highlights) - Becoming a father is his "biggest moment of 2025" and a magical feeling[2]. - The experience has been more grounding than he expected[2]. - He expressed gratitude when congratulated and hinted that the baby's name will be shared soon[1][4]. How fans reacted and what comes next - Fans and peers have poured in congratulatory messages since the couple announced their bundle of joy in November, and public curiosity about baby details remains high[1][2]. - Professionally, Vicky still has major projects ahead (including collaborations that fans are eagerly waiting for), but expect his public appearances and interviews to include more personal reflections as he navigates fatherhood publicly[1][4].
