Vicky Kaushal has offered fans a charming peek into his marriage with Katrina Kaif, revealing a fun dynamic they share around giving feedback on each other’s work. While Katrina is straightforward with her opinions on Vicky’s performances, the Sam Bahadur actor shared that she isn’t too keen on receiving the same level of critique in return.
During a recent conversation with Kareena Kapoor for The Hollywood Reporter India, Vicky, who recently marked a decade in the Hindi film industry, opened up about this candid aspect of their relationship. “Katrina doesn’t sugarcoat it. She tells me upfront if something is working or not,” Vicky explained. He added that Katrina’s honesty is something he values deeply, appreciating her ability to share clear and direct feedback while still understanding the effort that goes into acting.
However, Vicky humorously noted that the tables turn when he attempts to share feedback on Katrina’s work. “It’s different when it’s the other way around,” he said with a smile. “She prefers encouragement first.” Kareena, celebrating her own 25 years in the industry, laughed in agreement, adding that her husband, Saif Ali Khan, also isn’t always receptive to constructive criticism.
A snippet of this exchange quickly gained traction, where it sparked a range of reactions from users. Some found the situation amusing, calling it a “classic marriage moment,” while others pointed out the double standard in creative partnerships.
Despite the playful differences in their approach to feedback, both Vicky and Katrina continue to shine in their careers. Vicky’s last film, Chhaava, directed by Laxman Utekar, turned into a massive box office success, raking in over ₹800 crore globally while earning him acclaim for his compelling portrayal. Katrina, on the other hand, was seen in Merry Christmas (2024) alongside Vijay Sethupathi. Although the film had a mixed reception commercially, Katrina’s bold performance was widely appreciated, reaffirming her versatility as an actor.
Whether it’s about offering blunt feedback or preferring a bit of cushioning, Vicky and Katrina’s candid admission highlights the balance many creative couples strive to find—where honesty and encouragement go hand in hand, strengthening both their personal bond and professional growth.
