In a viral video, Vicky was on stage with the bride and groom, as he was attending a wedding. He asked the groom on stage, &#8220;Sir, mujhe aap se ek hi sawal poochna hai. How\u2019s the josh?\u201d The audience erupted in cheers as the actor recreated the dialogue that became iconic after the film\u2019s release.Encouraged by the crowd\u2019s reaction, Vicky continued with a light-hearted remark about married life. Turning to the audience, he added, \u201cDekha? Humesha maine yeh dekha hai bachelors ka josh humesha high rehta hai. Hum shaadhishuda waalo ke toh thode se josh (made a hand gesture like a crashing plane) saal bhar saal\u2026 Actually Akash ko tension lene ki zarurat nahi hai, 4 din mein josh kum nahi hota. Haina? But ek baar main chahta hun aap groom se pooche \u2018how\u2019s the josh\u2019, and we all know what to say: \u2018high sir\u2019. Correct?\u201dVicky&#8217;s wife joke faced some backlash and some even said that, &#8220;If ranbir had said this, there would have been numerous reels, podcasts, posts on x , reddit and Instagram telling us all how he is the worst husband ever.&#8221; Meanwhile, months after this, Vicky has now broken silence on the backlash. He said in an interview with The Nod Magazine, &#8220;There is no way that just because you\u2019re a public figure, you need to be perfect. Sometimes we do deserve the brickbats, and maybe the learning there for me is that, as much as people are giving me love, it also comes with a certain sense of responsibility.&#8221;Speaking further about fame and public scrutiny, the actor added, \u201cNo actor has gotten fame and not gotten the flip side of it. I made the conscious choice that I wanted to be here, and the Universe is reciprocating. Now it\u2019s on me how I handle [the fame]. And if the criticism is constructive, you can learn from it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Do you believe that making jokes about marriage reflects a larger cultural attitude?<\/p>\n<p>On work front, Vicky was last seen in &#8216;Chhaava&#8217;.
