Actor Vikrant Massey, 37, surprised fans by announcing his retirement from acting in a heartfelt social media post. Known for his compelling performances in films like 12th Fail (2023) and series like Mirzapur and Criminal Justice, Vikrant expressed his desire to step back and focus on personal priorities, including his role as a husband and father. He wrote, “The last few years have been phenomenal. I realize it’s time to recalibrate… coming 2025, we would meet each other for one last time.”
While the announcement stirred emotional responses from some fans, others were sceptical, questioning the timing. Critics linked the announcement to the release of his upcoming film Zero Se Restart, slated for December 13, which thematically aligns with fresh beginnings. Comments on Instagram ranged from, “Is this for real or just a marketing strategy?” to “Publicity stunt for the movie, most likely.”
