Katrina Kaif Spotted for First Time Since Son Vihaan’s Birth

New Delhi, February 25, 2026: In a moment that has sent social media into a frenzy, Bollywood superstar Katrina Kaif has made her first public appearance since welcoming her son, Vihaan Kaushal. The actress, who has been maintaining a low profile to embrace motherhood away from the limelight, was spotted in Mumbai on Tuesday, February 24, 2026.

A Low-Key Return to the Spotlight

Known for her grace and poise, Katrina opted for a grounded and casual look for her first outing. The actress was seen leaving a fitness session with her long-time trainer and friend, Yasmin Karachiwala. Dressed in a black hoodie with her hair tied back in a simple ponytail, the Merry Christmas star ensured she followed safety protocols by keeping her face mask on.

Despite her attempt to dodge the awaiting paparazzi and make a quick exit to her vehicle, fans were quick to capture the moment. While she didn’t pose for a formal photoshoot, the actress acknowledged the photographers with a warm wave from inside her car, sporting a visible “post-pregnancy glow” that has become a talking point among her followers.

The Journey to Motherhood: A Look Back

Katrina Kaif and Vicky Kaushal, who tied the knot in a dreamy Rajasthan ceremony in December 2021, have been relatively private about their personal milestones. The couple officially announced their pregnancy in September 2025 and welcomed their baby boy on November 7, 2025.

On January 7, 2026, marking the two-month milestone of their son’s birth, the duo shared a heart-melting joint post on Instagram revealing his name: Vihaan Kaushal. The post featured a tender image of their hands holding the infant’s tiny fist, captioned: “Our Ray of Light, Vihaan Kaushal. Prayers are answered. Life is beautiful. Our world has changed in an instant. Gratitude beyond words.”

Interestingly, fans pointed out that “Vihaan” was the name of Vicky’s iconic character in the film Uri: The Surgical Strike, making the choice even more special for the family.

Vicky Kaushal’s Tribute to the “Warrior Mother”

The spotting comes just a day after Vicky Kaushal spoke candidly about their new chapter at an event hosted by The Hollywood Reporter India. In a conversation with Neha Dhupia, the Chhaava actor showered his wife with praise, calling her a “superhero.”

“Right now, the mother is being the superhero, and she has been a warrior through her pregnancy and she has been a warrior as a mother as well,” Vicky shared, admitting that at three months, he is mostly playing the role of a “cheerleader” while Katrina handles the heavy lifting of parenting.

What’s Next for Katrina?

While Katrina is clearly prioritizing her role as a new mother, her brief appearance at a fitness studio suggests she may be slowly easing back into a routine. On the work front, she was last seen in Sriram Raghavan’s Merry Christmas. Meanwhile, Vicky Kaushal is riding high on the success of his recent historical epic and is preparing for Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s upcoming project, Love and War.

For now, the “Tiger” actress seems content in her “best chapter” yet, leaving fans eagerly waiting for more glimpses of the Kaushal-Kaif family.
