The majority of performers put in years of hard effort before they receive any notable fame or financial security. For an actor to be affluent enough to purchase a home in a city like mumbai at the age of 24 is a remarkable accomplishment. It is uncommon for them to run out of money in a year and have to use pocket money to attend auditions. Indeed, this is the tale of an actor who overcame several obstacles to become a long-term celebrity.
 
Vikrant Massey is the subject of our discussion. He left television in the height of his career, yet he was once one of India's top tv stars. After making his acting debut in 2007 with dhoom Machao dhoom, he went on to become well-known for his parts in balika vadhu and Dharam Veer. The actor used to make an incredible Rs 35 lakh from his tv job during the height of his popularity.
 
In an interview on Unfiltered by Samdish, Vikrant said, "When I informed my parents I was going to start again in movies, they were shocked. The money I was earning was substantial. I was making ₹35 lakh a month at the age of 24, which is a lot of money for someone from the middle class. I left tv while I owned a contract of ₹35 lakh per month. I decided to work hard and achieve tranquility.
 
Vikrant claimed that his money ran out after a year of giving up television. His then-girlfriend sheetal used to help him out by providing him with pocket money for auditions.
 
Vikrant eventually found little roles in movies like dil Dhadakne Do (2015) and Lootera (2013), which aided in his rise to fame. His highly regarded 2017 film A Death in the Gunj marked his debut. His chances increased as a result, and he began landing bigger parts in movies like chhapaak and Haseen Dilruba as well as the online series Mirzapur. Massey featured in Vidhu Vinod Chopra's sleeper blockbuster, 12th Fail, which took in Rs 69 crore at the movie office in 2023. The actor received a lot of attention this year for his outstanding performance in Sector 36.

Vikrant Massey discusses his personal upbringing and how he was raised in a very secular household. His mother is Sikh and his father is Christian, and they were married in an interfaith union. Moeen, his brother, became an Islamic convert. He is wed to Hindu sheetal Thakur. According to the actor, his family respects one another's faith and celebrates all holidays.
