Since welcoming her son, Vihaan Kaushal, in November 2025, the actress has been prioritising her new phase as a mother, largely staying away from the professional limelight.
Katrina Kaif Making Acting Comeback with OTT Project?
Reports surfaced recently across various entertainment portals, including one from India Today, suggesting that Katrina Kaif had resumed reading scripts and was actively exploring opportunities in the digital streaming space. These reports hinted at a potential return to film sets by the second half of 2027, possibly marking her debut in the long-format OTT world, a space she has yet to venture into. Sources cited in these reports implied that Kaif was being selective, seeking roles that aligned with her current life phase as both an artist and a mother.
However, these exciting prospects for fans have now been firmly quashed. Her team issued a clarification stating that "absolutely no truth" exists in the claims being made about Katrina Kaif's future acting plans or her alleged interest in OTT projects. The team underlined that any report speculating on her return was based on misinformation and lacked verification.

Since then, both Katrina and Vicky have maintained a private stance regarding their son, occasionally sharing glimpses of their parenting journey.
