Sunny Kaushal finds comparisons with 'big brother' Vicky Kaushal 'encouraging': "People expect good things from me"

Sunny Kaushal’s first movie as a lead actor, Shiddat, releases today. The actor who has previously starred in Akshay Kumar starrer Gold in a supporting role opened up about the constant comparisons with his brother Vicky Kaushal he has to face in a recent interview and said that he is proud of the fact.

Vicky is a rising star in Bollywood and has already amassed a huge fan base with films like Masan, Sanju, Uri, Raazi and Manmarziyaan among others. Sunny while talking to the Indian Express said that that they have different journeys and added that sustaining in the industry is not easy for anyone.

Not bothered by their constant comparisons, Sunny said, “Vicky has achieved something great, so when people want me to do as well as that, it is alright. It is encouraging that people expect good things from me. Also, the comparison is more in your face because we live in the same house, we are brothers.”

Speaking about people’s expectations of Vicky reflecting on him he added, “People expect that what one brother is doing, the other will follow suit. Will he be able to do it or not becomes intense, but that is not how I perceive it. I take it positively, because we both have our own journeys. People can compare us as much as they want, but my goal is mine so comparisons don’t matter. At the same time, I am proud to be compared to my big brother.”

Sunny starrer Shiddat is romantic film where he stars opposite Radhika Madan. It also stars Mohit Raina and Diana Penty. The movie is helmed by Kunal Deshmukh.
