Vicky Kaushal, the Bollywood heartthrob, is currently juggling multiple projects, including late-night shoots with co-stars Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt. While he immerses himself in his work, his wife, Katrina Kaif, seems to have developed an amusing nickname for him amidst these hectic schedules.
While the exact nickname Katrina uses hasn't been publicly revealed in recent news, it's clear that the couple shares a playful and loving dynamic. In the past, Katrina has disclosed some of the endearing terms used within the Kaushal household. During an appearance on The Kapil Sharma Show in 2022, Katrina revealed that her in-laws, Sham and Veena Kaushal, fondly call her "Kittu." This revelation charmed fans, highlighting the warm bond she shares with Vicky's parents.
Adding to the repertoire of cute names, Vicky himself has been known to use a special term for Katrina. In 2022, while promoting Phone Bhoot, Katrina shared that Vicky sometimes refers to her as "panic button" due to her occasional panicky nature. This lighthearted jab showcases their ability to tease each other affectionately. More recently, in February 2025, Katrina shared on Instagram that Vicky describes her as "Vichitra Kintu Satya Prani," which translates to "Strange But True Creature." This quirky nickname further exemplifies their playful banter and deep understanding of each other's unique personalities.
Vicky and Katrina tied the knot in December 2021 in a private ceremony in Rajasthan, and since then, they have become one of Bollywood's most adored couples. Despite their busy schedules, they often express their love and admiration for each other, setting couple goals for fans.
In February 2025, a video of Vicky posing with Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt at Sanjay Leela Bhansali's birthday celebration went viral, sparking reactions from fans. The moment was particularly noted because Ranbir Kapoor is Katrina Kaif's former boyfriend.
Beyond nicknames and social gatherings, both Vicky and Katrina are dedicated to their respective careers. Katrina was last seen in Tiger 3 and Merry Christmas, while Vicky has several projects lined up. Despite the demands of their professions and time apart due to shoots, they remain each other's support system.
Vicky once said that Katrina is like a 'subedar' or commander in the 'army' of people it takes to style him. He also revealed that he converted Katrina to aloo paratha with butter and pickle in exchange for pancakes.
