Actor R. Madhavan, known for films like 3 Idiots and Tanu Weds Manu, has shared details about the disciplined life of his son, Vedaant Madhavan, a national-level swimmer with multiple international accolades. Vedaant’s structured lifestyle, focused training, and mindful habits have become a point of interest for fans who admire the young athlete’s dedication.
A Day That Begins at 4 AM
In a conversation with GQ, Madhavan revealed that Vedaant starts his day at 4 a.m., aligning with the traditional Brahma Muhurta, considered the most spiritually conducive time to wake. His day stretches until 8 p.m., reflecting the demanding schedule of a professional swimmer.
Madhavan emphasized that maintaining such a routine is challenging not only for Vedaant but also for the family, highlighting the level of commitment required for competitive sports.
The Swimmer’s Physique and Lifestyle
Standing tall at 6’3”, Vedaant embodies the physical attributes of a trained swimmer. Madhavan described his son as having a “swimmer’s body” and following a highly disciplined lifestyle. Even simple tasks, such as eating, are approached with mindfulness—Vedaant focuses on proper chewing and balanced nutrition, treating meals as integral to his training regimen.
Madhavan compared his own habits humorously, noting that while he considers himself “lazy,” Vedaant’s discipline surpasses anything he has practiced, demonstrating the stark contrast between a creative professional and a competitive athlete.
Parenting and Achievements
Beyond physical training, Madhavan stressed the importance of fostering autonomy and a safe environment at home. Since Vedaant was five, Madhavan has engaged in open conversations with his son, respecting his opinions and ensuring a judgment-free space. This approach, he believes, helps Vedaant grow not only as an athlete but also as an individual capable of making mindful decisions.
Madhavan also expressed a desire to remain closely involved in his son’s life, envisioning a future where he can support him as a father and later as a grandfather. He wants to be a consistent presence when it matters most, providing guidance and emotional support whenever needed.
Vedaant has made a mark in competitive swimming, winning five golds at the Malaysian Open, a gold and silver at the Danish Open, and bronze medals at competitions in Latvia and Thailand. He also secured fifth place at the Commonwealth Youth Games, reflecting his rising stature on the international stage.
