At HTLS 2022, Anil Kapoor opens up about taking grandson Vayu for a stroll: 'He was trying to eat the sun'

During HTLS 2022, Anil Kapoor told George Clooney about how he has been slowly and steadily connecting with his grandson, Vayu. The two-month-old is the son of his daughter Sonam Kapoor.

George Clooney recently asked Anil Kapoor if he is enjoying being a grandfather. Anil was interviewing George Clooney via video chat at the Hindustan Times Leadership Summit on Saturday. Anil revealed how Vayu, son of his daughter Sonam Kapoor, reacted on being in the midst of nature for the first time as he took him for a stroll.

Anil Kapoor spoke about grandson Vayu at the HTLS session.

As Anil asked George Clooney about his experience of being a parent to five-year-old twins, Ella and Alexandar, he in turn asked Anil if he was also enjoying being a grandfather. Anil replied, “When I became a father, I couldn't process it. It took me some time to process it.”

About becoming a grandfather, he said, “I am still in a process. I was in Austria, I started slowly connecting with my grandson. His name is Vayu, means wind. I took him for a walk, (there was) beautiful weather. He was looking at the sky and the sun and trying to eat. That was his first exposure to the universe, to the planet, to the nature. It was wonderful to see how he was reacting to it. I am slowly and steadily connecting with him, much quicker than I connected with my children.”
