Bollywood actor Vicky Kaushal has been making headlines lately for his upcoming film ‘Chhava’. In a recent interview, he took a trip down memory lane and reminisced about his old days. He shared that he used to live in a chawl and his first salary was a modest Rs 1,500. Despite being the son of action director Sham Kaushal, Vicky has worked hard to carve a niche for himself in the industry.
For his fans, Vicky’s journey is a source of inspiration. He once lived with his family in a small 10×10 room in the chawl, and the way he has risen to fame is a testament to his dedication and perseverance. Recalling his struggles, Vicky spoke about his childhood in the chawl, saying that he was born there and his parents had to struggle more than he did. As a child, he did not fully understand the meaning of struggle, but he acknowledges that everyone faces challenges in life.
Vicky believes that conflict is an essential part of life, and it is what makes our journeys worth sharing. He said, “As long as there is life, there will be struggle. If someone lacks something, then someone else is part of something. It is a part of life.” He also emphasized the importance of celebrating the struggles of life, as they give us stories to tell and lessons to learn.
When talking about his first salary, Vicky recalled that he received a check for Rs 1,500 when he was working in theater. At the time, he was working backstage in production, not acting. He remembered feeling nervous and excited when he received his first paycheck, and he made sure to hold on to it tightly, fearing that he might lose it.
Today, Vicky Kaushal is one of the highest-paid actors in Bollywood, charging up to Rs 20 crore per film. His upcoming film ‘Chhava’ is set to release on February 14, and he will be sharing the screen with Rashmika Mandana and Akshaye Khanna. Vicky’s rags-to-riches story is a reminder that hard work and determination can take you a long way, and his fans are eagerly waiting to see what he has in store for them next.
