Soon after the post went live, social media flooded with reactions. Fans poured in love and blessings for the newborn.

When Vicky Kaushal spoke about his baby name reveal and fatherhood
Interestingly, Vicky had earlier hinted that the name reveal would come soon. At a public event, photographers had asked him, “Bete ka naam kya rakha hai?” The actor blushed, smiled and replied, “batata hu”, promising to share the name at the right time. He stayed true to his word.
Vicky has also spoken openly about embracing fatherhood. During an interview with NDTV, he reacted with humour when asked if he had mastered changing diapers. Laughing, he said, “I am better at changing diapers than acting. I’d just like to say that.” Beyond the jokes, the actor admitted that becoming a father has brought a deep emotional shift.
He also shared how difficult it felt to step out of the city for work soon after his son’s birth. “It’s very tough (to leave the city after becoming a father). But one day when he watches this, he’ll be proud of his dad. I can’t express in words what it means to be a father,” Vicky said.
