Vicky Kaushal, who was last seen in Aditya Dhar's Uri: The Surgical Strike, has been widely appreciated for his role as Major Vihaan Singh Shergill of the Indian Army. The film not only impressed the audience and the critics alike but is also the second highest grossing Bollywood film of 2019. The actor is now gearing up for Shoojit Sircar's Sardar Udham Singh biopic apart from headlining Meghna Gulzar’s film on Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw. Nonetheless, Vicky has emerged as a face of patriotic films. However, the actor is now keen to do a romantic film, if he gets an opportunity.
Speaking about it to a leading daily, Vicky said, “I would love to do a romantic film and whenever I get an opportunity I will do it. Every film has a romantic angle, but at what intensity I can’t reveal now. But I would like to do it." The Masaan actor, who has earlier done digital series like Love Per Square Foot, further claimed that he would like to explore the web space again. “Digital platforms are booming and we all are witnessing it. Of course if there is a good story and setup, and if it works, then I would want to do it. My first love will always be cinema, because the big screen has given me the courage to be an actor. So that will never fade and it’s a great addition to the menu card. If I get something exciting then I will jump into it,” said Vicky.
