Have you ever noticed how love can change someone's taste in music? It’s a subtle shift, but a telling one. This is exactly what happened with Katrina Kaif after she started dating Vicky Kaushal, according to actress Kriti Sanon. But before we dive into that, let's rewind to a hilarious anecdote Vicky himself shared.
Vicky Kaushal recently recounted a story about a road trip with Katrina, pre-marriage, on the show 'Two Much' with Kajol and Twinkle. He was jamming to a Punjabi song, completely lost in the rhythm, and Katrina started vibing with it too. So far, so good, right? She even recorded a video of herself singing along, thinking it was a romantic tune. "I'm going to sing this song!" she exclaimed, full of enthusiasm. But here's where it gets controversial... Vicky had to break it to her that the song wasn't exactly a love ballad. In fact, it had gangster vibes, with lyrics about, shall we say, less-than-romantic topics like killing and weapons! "Please don't sing this in front of anyone," he warned her, "This isn't the right song!" Imagine the awkwardness!
Now, back to Kriti Sanon's observation. Kriti revealed the change she noticed in Katrina after she started dating Vicky. "We used to work out in the same gym, me and Katrina," Kriti explained. "And when she started dating you [Vicky], suddenly, her playlist changed. Suddenly, her playlist had Punjabi music." Kriti was taken aback. "I looked at her and said, 'This is your playlist?!' Because those were definitely not the songs she was listening to before." Katrina's response? A simple, "Yeah, I like it. I can update you." A clear sign of Vicky's influence! It's a sweet and relatable example of how our partners can introduce us to new things and expand our horizons. And this is the part most people miss... it isn't just about changing a playlist. It's about being open to new experiences and embracing the things that are important to the person you love.
Vicky and Katrina's love story culminated in a beautiful wedding on December 9, 2021, at Six Senses Fort Barwara, Rajasthan. And on November 7 of this year, they welcomed their first son, marking a new chapter in their lives.
As for their upcoming projects, Vicky will be seen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's 'Love & War,' an "epic saga" also starring Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt, slated for a 2026 release. Katrina was last seen in Sriram Raghavan's 'Merry Christmas' in 2024. Kriti will star alongside Dhanush in Aanand L Rai's 'Tere Ishk Mein,' releasing on November 28. 'Tere Ishk Mein' is produced by Gulshan Kumar, T-Series, and Colour Yellow Productions, with Aanand L Rai, Himanshu Sharma, Bhushan Kumar, and Krishan Kumar as producers.
