In a recent interview with Raj Shamani, Vicky revealed that his father contemplated suicide because he was without a job in Mumbai and was even ready to work as a sweeper.
Vicky said that his parents were happy with him working in a regular 9-5 job but he wanted to do something different. The actor said, "My parents were very happy with the idea of me having a regular (9-5) job. My grandfather had a small kirane ki dukaan (grocery shop) in our village in Punjab. That’s where my parents are from. Dad came to Mumbai in 1978. He had an MA in English literature, but he was still jobless. We had no land back there (in Punjab). One day, after drinking with his friends, he declared that he wants to die. My grandfather became very concerned, so he sent him to Mumbai with a friend.”
He added, "In Mumbai, my dad was willing to work as a sweeper even, because he knew that nobody in the village would get to know. My dad’s youth was full of struggles. There’s no job security in this field. While you’re working on one project, you’re wondering if you’ll find something else next. My family was genuinely very happy that finally someone is going to have a stable income, job security, off days. He (my father) was so happy. He felt like his struggles had finally paid off. But I just knew that I couldn’t do a conventional 9-5 job. I had an offer letter, I’d passed with good marks.. but I knew that I’d become depressed if I went ahead with it.”
On the work front, Vicky will next star in 'Chhava'. He will also be seen in 'Love & War' along with Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt.
