Bollywood star Vicky Kaushal has humorously declared a new professional ranking in his life, placing his diaper-changing skills above his acting prowess. The actor, who became a father in November 2025 with wife Katrina Kaif, shared these heartfelt and amusing insights during a public appearance, marking his first trip outside Mumbai since his son's arrival.
The Emotional First Trip Away
Speaking at an NDTV event where he received an acting honour on December 20, 2025, Kaushal described the emotional challenge of stepping out for work. "This is the first time I've left the city after becoming a father, and it was very tough," he confessed from the stage. He dedicated the award to his family and his newborn son, expressing hope that the child would one day look back with pride.
Fatherhood: A Phase of Pure 'Magic'
When probed about the challenges of new parenthood, the actor was effusive about the joy it has brought. "It is too new to feel any challenges. It's all magical right now. It's all very blissful right now," Vicky stated. He admitted that words failed to capture the profound feeling, simply calling it a special blessing for which he feels immensely grateful. He emphasized that his entire family is overjoyed with the new addition.
A New Found Talent in Parenthood
In a lighthearted moment that has since captured fans' hearts, Kaushal joked about acquiring a new skill set. With a laugh, he proclaimed, "I am better at changing diapers than acting." This candid remark highlights the actor's hands-on approach to fatherhood and his delight in this personal chapter, even as his professional life continues to thrive.
On the work front, Vicky Kaushal was last seen in the historical drama 'Chhaava,' which emerged as the highest Hindi grosser of the year. His upcoming projects are highly anticipated, including Sanjay Leela Bhansali's mega-film 'Love & War,' co-starring Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt. Following that, he is set to begin work on Amar Kaushik's 'Mahavatar.' Meanwhile, Katrina Kaif is yet to announce her next project post-maternity.
