When Vedaant Stole his dad R Madhavan's Thunder at the Pool!
R. Madhavan humorously recounted a story about his son, Vedant, overshadowing him at a swimming competition. Initially enjoying the attention and autographs, Madhavan's spotlight shifted when Vedant revealed his athletic physique. The actor playfully admitted feeling a pang of ego deflation as his son became the center of admiration, a moment of realization for the proud father. R. Madhavan, the charismatic and beloved actor, has always been a heartthrob. Whether it's his boy-next-door charm, or his brilliant performances, Madhavan has long basked in the admiration of his fans. But like every father, he has his moments of self-reflection, and as he recently humorously confessed, that those moments also come with a touch of ego deflation—thanks to his swimming champion son, Vedaant. In a candid interview with ETimes, Madhavan shared an anecdote that perfectly captures the amusing shift in attention from him to his son, and it's a story that dates back to when he would take his son, Vedaant, for swimming competitions. Picture this: It's 4 AM, Vedant is all bundled up in a robe, half-asleep, and looking like any typical groggy teen. Meanwhile, Madhavan is basking in the attention, signing autographs, and charming the crowd with his trademark smile. Life was good, and his "charming dad" status was in full swing. But then, the moment arrives. Vedant's swimming competition is announced. As the young athlete gets ready, Madhavan, ever the supportive dad, feeds him a banana, no less. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Get ₹2Cr life cover@ ₹700 p.m. ICICI Pru Life Insurance Plan Get Quote Undo And then it happens—like a scene from a movie. Vedant sheds his robe, revealing his well-toned muscles, and suddenly, all the attention that had been lavished on Madhavan for the past hour, is swiftly diverted to the young champion. Madhavan, trying to hold onto his limelight, jokingly confesses that in that moment, he couldn't help but think, 'Wear your clothes!' He also happened to share the anecdote to his wife Sarita and said, 'I shot myself in the foot,' with a laugh. Of course, there was no ill will toward his son, just a playful moment of self-aware realization that sometimes, fathers get outshone by their offspring, even in the most unexpected ways. Madhavan was recently seen in a romantic film Aap Jaisa Koi with Fatima Sana Sheikh , and the actor received a lot of adulation for his performance. He will next be seen in Dhurandhar with Ranveer Singh , Arjun Rampal, Akshaye Khanna and Sanjay Dutt- he plays NSA Chief Ajit Doval in the film. He also has De De Pyaar De 2 with Ajay Devgn and Rakul Preet Singh in the pipeline.
