Through Small Screen to Silver Spotlight: The Ascent of Vikrant Massey
Vikrant made a tough decision by choosing the route of thorns and hardship over the route of flowers. A failing actor finds it difficult to make a grand entrance, particularly after more than 13 years of television serial appearances. But Vikrant’s luck turned out to be on his side, as he got his Bollywood film debut in Lootera, starring Vikramaditya Motwane. Despite the fact that it wasn’t the movie that Vikrant may have anticipated, he went on to play a supporting role with well-known actors like Ranveer Singh and Sonakshi Sinha. Since then, Massey has made the decision to put roles ahead of films.

Vikrant Massey has previously said in an interview that he had to give up a salary of Rs 35 lakh in order to launch a new career in the film business. It is hard to believe that the actor had established himself in the television industry, so he had to make a tough decision. “I made a lot of money when I worked in television,” Vikrant said. When I was 24, I was making 35 lakh a month when I purchased my first house. For someone from a household like mine, where we had trouble making ends meet, that was a lot. Even after I paid off debt, acquired the house, and improved my parents’ quality of life, I was unable to get a good night’s sleep. I gave up then because I believed that doing quality work was more essential. I had used up all of my funds, so Sheetal, Vikrant’s wife, would give me a loan so I could go to the auditions.

Following his appearance on Lootere, Vikrant made an appearance on Zoya Akhtar’s Dil Dhadakne Do. It became apparent that Massey had to settle for his big-screen appearance since he couldn’t acquire the character he wanted. But his role in the movie highlighted his involvement in the business, which strengthened his standing as one of Bollywood’s most well-known figures. The actor’s big break came when he was cast in A Death in the Gunj by Konkana Sen Sharma. Since Vikrant’s transition from television star to established actor, he has drawn interest from the public and been sought for several projects.

Following appearances in many Bollywood films, including Haseen Dillruba, Ginny Weds Sunny, Switchh, and 14 Phere Gaslight starring Deepika Padukone. After that, Vikrant Massey starred in the film 12th Fail, a biography about IPS officer Manoj Kumar Jha. At that point, Massey’s movie defeated Akshay Kumar’s OMG 2, a film featuring the versatile actor in Bollywood, at the box office. Pankaj Tripathi was also in the cast.

Since Massey’s portrayal in the biography had such an effect that people were drawn to the theatres to see his picture, it was clear that 12th Fail had a poor start at the box office. Because the movie was about trials and tribulations, a lot of people could relate to Vikrant Massey’s depiction of Manoj Kumar Jha, the aspiring IPS officer. It was discovered that Vikrant Massey had established himself in the film industry after 12 Fail and that he had even gone on to win an award for his outstanding performance in the biopic. Regarding his career, Vikrant will be discussed in “The Sabarmati Report.”
