Vicky Kaushal will be celebrating his birthday with his family.
Vicky Kaushal turns 32 on May 16 this year. However, the birthday celebration this year will be quite different due to the ongoing lockdown in the wake of coronavirus. This year, Vicky will be celebrating his birthday quietly with his family members. Talking about having a low-key celebration at home, he said, “It’s going to be different this time because it’ll be a quiet one. It is going to be all about spending time with family. I’ll also be catching up with my friends over video calls. From this point on, it’ll be a conscious effort to give more time to them. When the lockdown is lifted, I’ll make sure that no matter how busy I get in life, I’ll spend ample time with them, have meals with them and talk to them rather than blaming the fast-paced life for not being there with my family,” he adds as the lockdown has made him realise the value of family more.
He even talked about quiet birthday celebrations in his childhood. “I used to be very upset because my birthday would fall during the summer vacations. I couldn’t wear regular clothes to school on my birthdays and distribute chocolates to the entire class. But what I remember are the sweet parties at home where I would cut cakes surrounded by my friends. That was the time when technology hadn’t advanced so much and nobody was aware of the concepts of video calls and selfies. Those celebrations felt so real because we wouldn’t be busy clicking photos for social media,” he shares.
Vicky added that he has no complaints as staying at home is no less than a luxury for him. “Look at what people, who are away from home or don’t have a home, are going through, including the frontline workers of the pandemic. By staying home, we can help flatten the curve,” he told Mumbai Mirror in a conversation.
Vicky has a couple of films in the pipeline-all of them look promising. Vicky will be seen in Sardar Udham Singh biopic by Shoojit Sircar, which is currently in the post-production phase. He will also star in Meghna Gulzar's Sam, a biopic on Field Marshall Sam Manekshaw. He also has Immortal Ashwatthama, which will reunite him with his Uri director Aditya Dhar. And last but not the least, Vicky will also be seen in Karan Johar's directorial Takht.
