Vicky: Kat is brutally honest but prefers sugarcoated feedback

Vicky Kaushal recently opened up about the dynamic he shares with wife and fellow actor Katrina Kaif when it comes to reviewing each other’s work. Vicky revealed that Katrina isn’t one to sugarcoat her opinions and is often blunt about his performances, something he truly values.“She is very honest. She will say how it is,” Vicky said in an interaction with Kareena Kapoor Khan for The Hollywood Reporter India, adding, “But sometimes, she will be a little careful because whatever it is, there is a lot of hard work that has gone into it. You have to be sensitive towards that... but mostly she is straightforward, which I actually love. After a film screening, it is very rare to find that kind of feedback — this was good, this was bad, this you could have done better.”Vicky on giving feedback to KatrinaWhile Vicky appreciates Katrina’s honesty, he admitted that the same kind of feedback doesn’t always sit well with her. “It’s the same over here. She wouldn’t want that either. First step has to be encouragement,” he said with a laugh, agreeing with Kareena, who mentioned that she wouldn’t want her husband Saif Ali Khan to be that brutally honest about her performances either.

Vicky on Katrina’s straightforward natureThis isn’t the first time Vicky has spoken about Katrina’s no-nonsense approach.

In an earlier chat with Bombay Times Lounge, he had shared, “It becomes difficult to be objective when two people are together. She is able to give me that third-person perspective when it comes to my creative thoughts... Sometimes, she is too honest. I keep telling her to sometimes sugarcoat. She is very honest.”Vicky Kaushal and Katrina Kaif tied the knot in a private ceremony in 2021 after dating for a few years. Professionally, Vicky is gearing up for Love and War, directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, while Katrina is currently focusing on her beauty business and hasn’t confirmed any upcoming acting projects.
