In the recent episode of Into The Wild with Bear Grylls, Vicky had opened-up about his humble family background and said he grew up in a 10X10 house with no separate kitchen or bathroom. “That’s where I was born. And from thereon, it has been my family’s journey.” The actor had also said that he and his family have seen each step of the ladder.

It is reported that Sham worked at another job in Mumbai, but soon quit it to pursue a career in films. The father of the actor reportedly stayed at a paying guest accommodation in Santa Cruz, where he used to live with ten fellow Punjabi men, who were stuntmen. That was the time when Sham discovered his profession as a stuntman. To keep a stable income in the family, Sham decided to become a stuntman at a young age.
