Last Updated:
Parmeet Sethi discussed his vlogging career and his recent trip to Switzerland with his family.
Parmeet Sethi, widely recognised for his roles in hit films like Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge and Lakshya, has now stepped into a new phase of his career. Alongside his wife, actress Archana Puran Singh, and their sons Aryamann and Ayushmaan, Parmeet has embraced the world of vlogging. Their YouTube content offers a vibrant mix of emotion, adventure, and family moments, connecting them with fans in a fresh, personal way. Recently, Parmeet reflected on this 'second innings" of his professional journey and shared how he and Archana are intentional about keeping their sons grounded, despite their showbiz background.
In an interview with SCREEN, Parmeet Sethi opened up about his recent family trip to Switzerland with his wife, Archana Puran Singh and their sons, Aryamann and Ayushmaan. Interestingly, despite attaining much stardom with his stint in movies and now in vlogs, the actor made his kids travel in economy. Disclosing the reason behind this, he also shared how the couple has asked the boys to earn their own money. 'We have always tried to keep our children grounded, as normal as possible and keeping them away from the trappings of being in a filmy family," he told SCREEN.
Further, the actor revealed his and Archana's teachings and clarified, 'When they travelled in business class with their own money, that joy was incomparable. It was ten times more than your parents handing you a ticket."

In the same conversation, Sethi was then asked what Aryamann and Ayushmaan wished to become in their lives. To this, he disclosed their career plans and shared how they have been working hand for the same. 'Aryamann has a music career and also wants to become an actor. Ayushman only wants to become an actor. He is really looking for a lead role in a series or film. Both are auditioning every week. They have been preparing themselves for the last 2-3 years with Atul Mongia classes and everything. They are itching to come on screen now," the doting daddy revealed. He also reflected on how his kids were recognised on the roads of Switzerland and approached for selfies more than the couple, which elated him.
The Bhangra Paa Le star then talked about his latest venture with Archana and the kids, saying that they never expected millions of people would be watching them. 'We were not expecting it – socha tha 20-25K views ajayenge and now it's in millions. We all are very grateful. It's like a second career for me," he said, mentioning how the family of four have started taking vlogs very seriously as they are being more fruitful than films.
On the professional front, Sethi was last seen in the web series The Magic Of Shiri, co-starring Divyanka Tripathi in 2024. He was also supposed to feature in Aarti S Bagdi's directorial Abir Gulal, which features Vaani Kapoor and Fawad Khan in lead roles. The movie has been postponed for an indefinite period due to the presence of Pakistani actor Fawad Khan amid India-Pakistan war tensions.
