Yami Gautam on son Vedavid
In an interview with News 18 Showsha, Yami revealed how motherhood has changed her life. “I think when you become a mother, I’m sure that stands true for both the parents, but especially a mother, your whole life changes in every possible way your life can change. However, you’ve been, whatever work you’ve done — that on one side, and this is a totally different phase of yourself, which you are also never prepared for. Of course, you’re so happy, you’re on top of the world, this is the biggest blessing, and this is so new to you, and you’re so vulnerable because this is also the most important thing, something which you only have to learn by yourself, nobody teaches you. You’re nervous, there’s so many things, there’s so many factors and at the end of the day, just those big eyes staring at you and just wanting love, and that’s it! I think, can just be there and sitting there for hours and do nothing, if it was really up to me,” she said.
The actor then revealed that she and Aditya have decided to keep son Vedavid away from the media to give him the chance to have a normal childhood. She explained, “You won’t see him. I mean, that’s a very personal choice which Aditya and I have taken. I think a child deserves a childhood that every other child needs to have. It has a psychological impact, and we want him to just enjoy this life, to enjoy this blessing.”
