The Kaushal family has a new member, and his name carries the weight of cinematic history. Katrina Kaif introduced baby Abir to the world via a tender Instagram post, crediting inspiration to husband Vicky Kaushal’s tour-de-force in ‘Uri: The Surgical Strike’.
The monochrome photo captures pure parental bliss: Katrina’s hand cradling her son’s. Captioned ‘Abir Vicky Kaushal—our pride, echoing the heroes of Uri’, it resonates deeply with fans who idolize the 2019 hit. Vicky’s portrayal of the vengeful Major earned accolades and box-office glory, grossing over ₹250 crore.
Married since December 2021, the couple’s path to parenthood was marked by discretion. Katrina’s subtle maternity glow in recent appearances fueled excitement, culminating in this joyful reveal. ‘Every day is a lesson in love,’ Vicky reflected during a film fest appearance.
Reactions poured in from across the spectrum—Hrithik Roshan called it ‘beautifully symbolic’, while army veterans appreciated the nod to real-life bravery. Hashtags exploded, bridging ‘Uri’s legacy with modern family vibes.
Professionally, Katrina’s ‘Baby John’ cameo awaits, and Vicky’s ‘Laxman Utekar’ project promises more. Yet, amid stardom, Abir’s arrival shifts focus to family roots. This naming decision immortalizes ‘Uri’s spirit in their lineage, proving how stories from the screen shape real lives in unexpected, heartfelt ways.
