Back in November last year, actors Vicky Kaushal and Katrina Kaif welcomed their first child into the world. The happy star couple were blessed with a beautiful baby boy. Netizens showered love on Vicky and Kat as they patiently waited to meet Baby Kaushal. As their son turned two months old on January 7, Vicky and Katrina introduced him to fans with a cute family photo featuring their hands. They also revealed his name, which has an Uri connection — Vihaan Kaushal, much like Vicky’s character Major Vihaan Shergill in Uri: The Surgical Strike (2019). Well, Vicky’s Uri director Aditya Dhar has now reacted to the same.
