Vikrant Massey opens up about taking a break from work; says, “Social media pressure was an important part of sharing that break from work”
Vikrant Massey shared his thoughts on taking a break from work and said, “The life I had always dreamt of, I finally got it, so I thought it was time to live it. I want to take a break, because at the end of the day, everything is transient, which is why I am only doing one film next year. Social media pressure was an important part of sharing that break from work post, that I concede. I lead a public life, and am borderline introvert-ish. One has to come to social media. But if someone were to give me an option, I would come selectively on it, whenever I would feel like sharing something.”
He added, “And then my son was born, I was not able to spend any quality time with him or my wife. All of this was happening simultaneously. So, which is why I had written in that Instagram post, that as an actor, son, father and as a husband, it was time for me to recalibrate. And after doing what I had done professionally, I thought, ‘What else could I have done more as an actor in this country?’ I just want to better myself as an artiste going forward.”
Vikrant Massey’s announcement came shortly after the release of his latest movie, The Sabarmati Report. In his heartfelt Instagram post, he wrote, “The last few years and beyond have been phenomenal. I thank each and every one of you for your indelible support. But as I move forward, I realise it’s time to recalibrate and go back home. As a Husband, Father & a Son. And also as an Actor. So, coming 2025, we would meet each other for one last time. Until time deems right. Last 2 movies and many a years of memories. Thank you again. For everything and everything in between. Forever indebted.”
After announcing his break, Vikrant Massey was spotted in Dehradun shooting for his upcoming film, Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan, alongside Shanaya Kapoor. The film will explore a contemporary take on romance and ghosting, though the plot remains under wraps for now. Reports suggest that Santosh Singh is directing the project.
