Katrina and Vicky hard launched their relationship in 2021 when they announced their engagement. The couple got married in an intimate ceremony in Rajasthan, with actual drones to ensure privacy.

We decided to delve deep into all these moments and uncover why they are the blueprint for a healthy modern relationship…

5 Ways Katrina Kaif And Vicky Kaushal Set New Standards For Modern Love

They complement each other

Opposites coming together is a beloved trope in romance novels for a reason. Katrina and Vicky have gone on to say how their natures and tastes couldn’t be more different from each other. Vicky even went on to say in an interview once that their marriage is “paratha weds pancakes”! Katrina has also spoken about how they balance each other out, with Vicky being able to ground her when she gets anxious and her being able to provide structure to his life.

They are each other’s cheerleaders

Vicky misses no opportunity to be Katrina’s hypeman, whether it’s to talk about her impeccable work ethic in his interview or swatching new lipsticks from her beauty brand Kay Beauty. Katrina has also repeatedly expressed admiration for Vicky’s attitude toward work and life. In an interview with HELLO! India, Katrina spoke about how Vicky’s authentic nature and attitude towards life amazes and inspires her in equal measure. The actress, who is known for her formidable dance moves, also gave her stamp of approval to Vicky’s viral ‘Tauba Tauba’ moment earlier this year. Not to forget, how Vicky learned all the moves to Katrina’s most popular songs and organised a one-man concert for her birthday when she was feeling down!

They acknowledge the work it takes to make a relationship work

One of the reasons why Katrina and Vicky are one of the most beloved celebrity couples around is because they acknowledge that things are not as pretty and happy as they seem on social media. In an interview, Vicky opened up about how he is a flawed human being and had to learn how to be the right partner for his wife. If there’s one relationship lesson we should take away from them it’s that understanding and compassion are the foundation of any strong relationship.

They know the value of being happy separately

During one of her appearances on Koffee With Karan, Katrina Kaif spoke about how her philosophy on love and relationships has evolved to form around one basic principle: Nobody else is responsible for your happiness. In an interview, Vicky spoke about why they work so well together, “My marriage to Katrina is the result of a deep connection at the core level. I appreciate her core and she appreciates mine. I do not want to make her a better person and she does not want to make me a better person. We are already in love with the person we are. What is new for us is how we are both growing together. Now that we are married, it is always about what is working for us, not me.”

They manifested their relationship

Last, but definitely not least, is how the Universe came together to put them in each other’s path. In an episode of Koffee With Karan in 2018, Katrina took Vicky’s name when asked by host Karan Johar who she thinks would look good opposite her onscreen. Vicky’s reaction to her statement (the actor proceeded to swoon when he saw the clip) sparked the beginning of their fans shipping the two with each other. Reportedly, the two finally met each other at Zoya Akhtar’s house and then filmed an episode of Film Companion’s show Tape Cast together. Vicky even joked about asking for her hand in marriage on stage at an awards show. The rest, as they say, was history.
