Happy Birthday Vicky Kaushal: From engineering to the arc lights, an unconventional path to Bollywood stardom
In the heart of Mumbai, a city that never sleeps and where dreams either take flight or crumble, Vicky Kaushal’s journey from a young engineering graduate to a Bollywood sensation is a tale of perseverance, passion, and the pursuit of a dream.
Born on May 16, 1988, in a suburban chawl, Vicky’s early life was far from the glitz and glamour of the silver screen. His father, an action director in Indian films, and his mother, a homemaker, instilled in him the values of hard work and dedication. Despite his father’s industry ties, Vicky’s path to stardom was not a red carpet laid out but a road he paved himself.

After earning an engineering degree from the Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Technology, Vicky’s destiny seemed to steer towards a conventional job. However, during an industrial visit in his final year, he realized that the monotonous life of an office job was not his calling. The world of cinema beckoned, and he answered its call.
Vicky’s foray into the film industry began behind the camera, assisting Anurag Kashyap in the crime drama Gangs of Wasseypur (2012). This experience was crucial, as it gave him a front-row seat to the intricacies of filmmaking. He learned, observed, and waited for his moment.
His acting debut came with a minor role in Luv Shuv Tey Chicken Khurana (2012), but it was the independent drama Masaan (2015) that marked his arrival as a lead actor. His portrayal of a young man trapped by societal norms and personal tragedy in the city of Varanasi won him critical acclaim and set the stage for his breakthrough.
The years that followed saw Vicky take on roles that challenged him and showcased his versatility. From the intense Raman Raghav 2.0 (2016) to the patriotic Uri: The Surgical Strike (2019), which won him the National Film Award for Best Actor, Vicky’s choices reflected a desire to push boundaries and tell stories that resonate.
Today, Vicky Kaushal stands as a testament to the power of dreaming big and the relentless pursuit of those dreams. His journey reminds us that the path to success is often unconventional, but with talent and tenacity, the spotlight is within reach.
