After ViRushka, Katrina Kaif and Vicky Kaushal Ask Paps to Not Click Photos of Their Son
Following in the footsteps of fellow high-profile celebrity parents Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma (popularly known as Virushka), Kaif and Kaushal have established clear boundaries regarding their child's public exposure. The couple interacted with the media personnel stationed at the airport terminal on Monday morning.
While Kaushal allowed himself to be photographed by the shutterbugs, Kaif, who was carrying the infant in her arms, requested that the photographers lower their cameras. According to eye-witness accounts from the media cohort on-site, Kaif politely asked not to be photographed with the baby but used the opportunity to introduce Vihaan to the paparazzi face-to-face. "Katrina was with Vicky, but she asked not to be photographed with the baby and introduced the baby to the paparazzi," shared a photographer who was present during the interaction.
A Measured Balance of Publicity and Privacy
The decision to formally introduce their son without allowing digital or print publication reflects a growing trend among the Bollywood elite looking to balance intense public interest with parental protective measures. While the couple has occasionally shared personal milestones on social media such as Kaif's recent birthday post for Kaushal that included a glimpse of their son and a birthday cake reading "happy birthday papa" they have strictly limited direct press coverage of the infant.
