Katrina Kaif and Vicky Kaushal’s wedding that kicks off today, is much awaited and fans are eagerly waiting for a glimpse from the star couple’s grand nuptials. While Vicky’s father Sham Kaushal is today one of the most respected action directors in the industry, Vicky revealed how he started out with a humble background, struggling to make ends meet in Mumbai.
Speaking on Sit with Hitlist with Mayank Shekhar, Vicky revealed, “My dad and mom are from a small village in Punjab. He was good in studies, and started learning English in sixth grade. He went on to top BA, in English Literature; did his MA. And wanted to be an English professor in Punjab. But the family`s financial situation was such that he could not pursue an M.Phil from Chandigarh. At 23, he was frustrated, with no job, even after an MA degree. My dadaji [grandfather] had a very small kiraane ki dukaan [convenience store] in the village. My dad`s friend Satpal was going to Bombay to become an actor. Since my dad was doing nothing at home, and frustrated, my grandfather asked him to tag along with the friend, for a few days, feel better, and come back.”
