Vicky Kaushal is pretty much the breakthrough star of 2018. We loved him in literally everything he was in. Be it, Love By Square Foot, Raazi, Sanju or Manmarziyaan. He has sort of attained the internet’s common boyfriend status because nobody is looking away if Vicky was to drop a picture right now. But the best part about the actor is that he seems just like the rest of us from the way he describes his experiences.
Recently in an interview, he recounted one of the first times when he was invited over to party with Shah Rukh Khan at his house. His experience of his first time at the Mannat will surely leave you in splits. He shared how Shah Rukh had personally invited him to his Diwali party and how Vicky had got the dress code wrong.
He said,
So Shah Rukh sir called me and said, ‘It was my birthday a few days ago. It’s just a chill dinner, so come with your friends.’ It was my first time at Mannat and I was so happy that it was a chill get-together for his birthday. So I go in my denim and T-shirt and shirt over it, just casual.I enter and see Kareena Kapoor Khan, Malaika Arora, everyone in like heavy Indian.
He further added that he spent the entire evening hanging out in a corner and hiding behind a curtain with Taapsee Pannu and Rajkummar Rao who much like himself were dressed in casuals.
Me, Taapsee, Rajkummar Rao…three-four of us were prepared for a birthday casual scene till we realised that we were so off. We were hanging out in one corner behind the curtain. Like, bar ke peeche wale curtain ke peeche wale wall ke peeche. We were like, koi dekh na le humein. I was so embarrassed because I was the first of that lot to enter.
Well…we guess casual birthday dinners in B-town are not as casual as the normal world.
