She added, “Stop glorifying a version of motherhood that doesn’t exist.”

Sharing the post, she also said, “After seeing multiple such posts in the last few days… can’t help but think how ridiculous the thought process is!”

Katrina Kaif and Vicky Kaushal welcome baby boy

Katrina Kaif and Vicky Kaushal welcomed their first child, a baby boy, on November 7, 2025. They named him Vihaan Kaushal. The couple got married in 2021 and has remained one of Bollywood’s most loved celebrity pairs.

Vicky had earlier spoken about becoming a father and the changes that came with parenthood. Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter India last year, he said, “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 and I’m waiting for him to grow up so I can contribute more.”

Talking about Katrina, he had said, “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.”
