In a world where celebrity lives are always under the scanner, Yami Gautam, a Bollywood actress and filmmaker Aditya Dhar have collectively decided to put distance between their son Vedavid and public glare. Promoting her Netflix film Dhoom Dhaam, she said the choice was more personal in protecting her child’s normal childhood from media intervention.
A Personal Choice for Privacy
In an interview, Yami Gautam said that they do not wish to put their son through unnecessary attention. She said,
“You won’t see him. That’s a very personal choice which Aditya and I have taken. I think a child deserves a childhood like every other child. It has a psychological impact, and we want him to just enjoy this life, to enjoy this blessing.”
This decision comes when many celebrities are facing increased paparazzi culture, where kids of stars have to grow up in the spotlight. Yami and Aditya’s decision reflects a trend among some actors who want their family life out of the spotlight.
