THIS actor has a Christian father and Sikh mother, quit TV and is now set to bid goodbye to films too
This actor is quite popular and has been a part of some amazing movies and shows. Last year, he delivered an incredible performance with one of his movies. Before films, he worked in some TV shows that made him a household name. His journey has not been easy. But hard work and dedication help him grow in his career. Well, he has now hinted at retirement.
Actor who quit TV and movies
This actor's parents are from different religions. His father is a Christian, his mother is a Hindu and his brother converted to Islam. The actor's wife is also a Hindu woman. In 2007, he made his debut with a Disney show called Dhoom Machao Dhoom. However, it is the shows Balika Vadhu and Dharam Veer that made him very popular.
Yes, we are talking about Vikrant Massey. At the age of 24, he earned a massive amount of Rs 35 lakh from his TV work. He belonged to a middle-class family so it was a big deal. However, at the peak of his career, Vikrant quit TV and pursued his career in movies. After playing supporting roles in films like Lootera and Dil Dhadakne Do, he got his much-deserving break in A Death in the Gunj.
But the period between this was tough as he exhausted all his savings and his girlfriend Sheetal (now wife) supported him financially during auditions. Vikrant Massey has worked in some big shows and movies like Mirzapur, Broken But Beautiful, Made in Heaven, Haseen Dillruba, Sector 36, 12th Fail, Love Hostel, Blackout, and others.
Today, Vikrant took to his Instagram page and 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 its 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."
