Is Vicky Kaushal lying about his age? - Page 4

Almost every actor lies about their age. When you live in an ageist Bollywood industry and are given opportunities based on a number instead of your acting talent, koi kya kare? I am sure Vicky is atleast 3-4 years elder too. But he is a fab actor who can mold himself convincingly into any role. One of the most versatile actors of this time ❤️ Bas yahi matter Karna chahiye.

Vicky isn't handsome from any angle according to me and I don't know how anyone else can find him handsome with that big nose of his and those bushy eyebrows 🤔😆

Rubbish! you are just jealous of his "handsome" face

Definitely looks older than 32.

I'm sure he takes care of himself and gets stuff done to his face (non surgical ones) but despite all that he looks unkempt and grubby.

Hmm really?

Of course. The information is all over the Internet

Why would he? There’s literally no incentive for Bollywood male actors to lie about their age. 50 year olds can romance 20 something actresses and no one bats an eyelid. I’ve never heard of men in gender biased work cultures lying about their age.

There's age discrimination in almost every field and it affects men though less than women.

In movies it's more lopsided than in other industries but it's also different when you're an established actor v starting out.

Now with the success of his films in particular URI it matters less.

When he was fighting for roles did he want to be the new guy in his mid 20s or the guy who's hung around not getting much of anywhere at 30 even though his father is in the business?

It affects how the media write about them. Did he then want to be compared in the progress of his career with Kartik, Tiger etc or with Ranbir and Ranveer?

Also note Ranbir is closer in age to Shahid than Ranveer and debuted in between them but the media groups the first two together and they and Ranbir's PR still position him as a young actor even though he's 38 and debuted in 2007. If the media, PR and the industry didn't care about age there wouldn't be all these groupings and comparisons between age groups.

Or look at Pratik Gandhi who just smashed it in Scam 1992. He's 40 and has been acting professionally for 15 years and yet his age is being reported by some parts of media as 31. Why? Probably because different doors would open for him at 31 rather than 40 even with Scam 1992 as his calling card.

I found be very attractive in Raman Raghav 2

Vicky is 147 years old 😆

Looks 30 something to me. Some people look older and some people look younger than they actually are. Maybe he's 34-36 instead of 32. But once you're beyond 30, imho, it's all the same. Would be weird if he was still claiming late twenties.
