R Madhavan often documents his son, Vedaant's victories and expresses his pride. In an earlier interview with Brut, the actor joked that people come to him to talk about his son and not his films. Giving credit to all those videos from Vedaant's swimming competition which surfaced on the internet, he narrated an incident when some of his fans walked towards him and congratulated him. Though he initially thought that those congratulatory wishes were for his upcoming film, Rocketry, however, he later got to know by going into the conversation, that it was for his son. Talking about the same, he had said:
“I am really jealous right now because every time I meet people on the road in Mumbai, I think that they are coming up to me with a smile because I think they are congratulating me for Rocketry but then they say, ‘He not really got the silver, but gold.’ My assistants have a good laugh at my expense. I am trying to win this competition by shutting him off and keeping him off the press while I can."
On the work front, R Madhavan was last seen in the movie, Rocketry.
