Vicky Kaushal opens up on managing anxiety: “The best thing to do for anxiety is to acknowledge it”

Vicky Kaushal has consistently spoken about his industry journey, including his challenges. He candidly addresses his anxiety and insecurities. In a recent interview, Vicky revealed that the most effective way to handle anxiety is to recognize it instead of allowing it to take over.

In an interview with Bazaar India, the actor discussed managing anxiety and was asked to share advice for younger creatives facing similar challenges. Vicky responded, “The best thing to do for anxiety is to acknowledge it. The enemy is indulging in it. A senior actor once told me to make anxiety your friend. It’s always going to be there; you just need to master it. Acknowledging it is a great first step.”

During tough times, the actor shared that he feels his best when he keeps himself creatively engaged, rather than mentally drained by "what-ifs."

In the same interview, Vicky shared that he is curious to explore film direction. He mentioned that he finds it fascinating to see different approaches in filmmaking. However, he is not sure if he would take that step right now, but he is “definitely intrigued.”

Vicky Kaushal's last appearance was in Bad Newz, a romantic comedy directed by Anand Tiwari and featuring Triptii Dimri and Ammy Virk, though it didn’t achieve the expected box office results. He’ll next appear in Chhava, portraying Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, the son of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, alongside Rashmika Mandanna. The film is set for a December release.

Additionally, Vicky will star in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s much-anticipated epic Love & War, with Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt. Originally scheduled for Christmas 2025, the film's release has been moved to March 20, 2026.
