MUMBAI: The nursery is decorated, the tiny clothes are washed and folded, the hospital bag is packed, and you’re eager to begin your new life with your newest family member! Being a parent is a huge responsibility, and it requires patience, love, and understanding. And for an actor who is constantly juggling between hectic shoot schedules, giving that the kind of attention to a child can get tough.

We all know that Vijayendra Kumeria, who plays the character of Sooraj in Colors’ Udaan, is a father of a two-year-old, Kimaya, and he has been vocal about how embracing fatherhood has been a life-changing experience. In fact, his pictures with his daughter are adorable!

We also have a video of Vijayendra spending some time out with Kimaya. After watching the video, we can vouch for the fact that she's a daddy's princess.

Vijayendra also makes for a perfect husband to his wife Preeti Bhatia. But we wonder how he manages his erratic shoot schedule and still spends quality time with his daughter? This is what he had to say.

‘The time for me is the time spent with my daughter. My mornings have become really good from the time she has come into my life because I wake up seeing her smiling face. I might get tired and exhausted at work, but when I return home, I feel rejuvenated with her hugs and kisses. I have started spending good family time after having Kimaya in our life. In short, our life revolves around her. Recently, I was not shooting, and I made sure I spent a lot of time with her. My wife Preeti is always on her toes when I am at home, as for her, it is like managing two kids at home. Touchwood, I am thoroughly enjoying my fatherhood.’

Cheers to parenthood, Vijayendra!
