Will carry lessons from lockdown to fatherhood: Sumeet Vyas

Actor Sumeet Vyas says lessons from the lockdown and the way human beings have to rethink their lives will help him in his journey of becoming a father soon.

Last month, Sumeet and actor-wife Ekta Kaul, who got married in 2018, announced they are expecting.

The "Veere Di Wedding" actor said the way people lived their lives will have to be reset, thanks to the nation-wide lockdown amid the coronavirus pandemic.

"If we are not able to learn lessons from this lockdown as human beings, then this would be a failed exercise. This has happened for a reason, spend time with each other, ourselves, question how we went about things.

"How we wanted to consume everything nature had to offer without anything to give in return. That's the biggest lesson that I'm learning. I'm sure that'll help me as a parent when I move on to that journey," Sumeet told PTI.

The actor says the lockdown has come as a "boon" for the couple at a time when they're about to turn parents.

"Fortunately for us, it has come out as a boon because we both were always keeping busy and didn't get enough time to spend with each other. This turned out at a time when we needed to spend time together and we got to."
"When you see someone getting scared, that reaction is what is funny. It wasn't easy... I was essentially trying to make sure, along with the writers, to keep the sanctity of the script as much as we can."
