At this point, Vicky spoke about his three-month-old son, Vihaan, and gave a huge shoutout to Katrina, calling her a true “warrior” for the strength she showed through pregnancy and how she embraced motherhood.
Vicky said, “It feels great (to be a dad). He is three months old right now, there’s very little a dad has to do when the baby is three months old, I’m just trying to be a cheerleader for the mother and the child and I’m waiting for him to grow up so I can contribute more.”
Talking about Katrina, Vicky shared, “Right now, the mother is being the superhero and she has been a warrior through her pregnancy and she has been a warrior as a mother as well. I’m so incredibly proud of her and I love her so much.”
