Vishal Dadlani explains why he never drinks alcohol

He explained, “I don’t know why I do these things. It’s the same reason I don’t drink alcohol. When I was a child, I had decided I wouldn’t, and I don’t now. My whole family used to drink casually; social drinking was normal. I mean, I’m from a Sindhi house. So, there was no such thing as alcohol being a bad thing. I just felt like I shouldn’t, so I don’t."



Meanwhile, on the work front, Vishal composed the album for Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Panday-starrer Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri in 2025. The movie is currently available to stream on Prime Video.
