Ask him what made him to keep mum about parenthood, the actor said, “If I could have it my way, I would not have announced the birth of my child either. We made a conscious decision to not speak about it, because we did not want unwanted attention and advice from people. Even when the pregnancy was confirmed, Nikhila continued telling people that she had put on weight. We are happy and blessed that both the mother and daughter are doing fine.”
He further added, “I am busy handling the hospital duties, so the feeling (of becoming a father) is yet to sink in. I will soon be leaving for a film shoot to Hyderabad, so I am feeling miserable about leaving Nikhila on her own for a few days.” Seems, the couple had a tough time finalising a name for the baby. “I had thought of a baby girl’s name but if it had been a boy, it would have been difficult, because we could not think of anything.”
On work front, Vivan has been part of shows like Aahat, Pyaar Ka Bandhan, Sanskaar Laxmi, Khatron Ke Khiladi and many.
