One of the most grounded actors of Bollywood Industries R Madhavan has recently spoken about his son's achievement and the popularity he is getting for it.  The actor said that the popularity his son is gaining because of his achievement is only because he is an actor's son and there are better singers in India than his son Vedaant.

R Madhavan while talking about his son's swimming achievement said, "Vedaant, I and Sarita (his wife) realised that he got a lot of attention because he is my child. His achievements are not at par with the fame he is getting right now. He's won a few competitions and still has a long way to go. There are better swimmers in his age group in India. The good news is that Vedaant realises it. He is sanitised from all this popularity in Dubai. And he still gets up at 4 am for his swimming sessions. I tell him, 'with all this popularity, you better get into Olympics.'

Speaking about Vedaant’s career as an actor. He told, “I enjoy the fact that he enjoys swimming and we love seeing him doing what he loves. So, I am definitely not putting acting or anything on his mind. He enjoys swimming, business management and economics.”

About Vedaant’s achievements

Vedaant is 16 years old, and is a national-level swimmer. Vedaant recently broke a national junior record at the 48th Junior National Aquatic Championships. Recently, he won the gold medal and broke the national junior record in the 1500m freestyle event at the ongoing Junior Aquatic Championship. After this, the actor's son gained praise from different people, and there was a social media post about his achievement. People from inside and outside the Bollywood Industry were praising him.

On the work front, R Madhavan has last seen in Rocketry the Nambi effect. The film marked his directorial debut, in which he essayed the role of former ISRO scientist Nambi Narayan. It is based on the life of the scientist who was falsely charged with espionage in 1994.
