Today the actor is celebrating his birthday and he has turned 37 years old. On this special occasion, we will tell you about the film journey of the actor, how the actor started from the small screen of TV and has now become a powerful actor of Bollywood. Even before the success of ’12th Fail’, Vikrant Massey played many such characters, which people still remember.
How was Vikrant’s film journey?
In ’12th Fail’, actor Vikrant Massey tried to portray Manosh Sharma exactly on screen. People also got to see the actor’s brilliant acting in the web series ‘Mirzapur’. In this show he played the important role of Bablu Pandit. His role in Deepika Padukone’s film ‘Chhapaak’ was also appreciated. The actor became Deepika’s love interest in the film. He appeared serious and calm in the role of a social worker working for acid attack survivors. All these roles of the actor were serious, but now let us tell you about his romantic style, which was seen in ‘Broken But Beautiful’. People were able to relate to his character shown in this series to a great extent and even today reels based on its scenes keep going viral on social media. Her performance in many projects like ‘Haseen Dilruba’, ‘Forensic’, ‘Plus’, ’14 Phere’ and ‘Love Hostel’ was amazing, but they could not get success at the box office.
Started acting 14 years ago
The actor made a brilliant start to his career 14 years ago on the small screen of TV. He played the character of Aamir Hasnain in the show ‘Dhoom Machao Dhoom’. This show did not run much, hence there is less talk about it, but just one year later in 2008, the actor got a big break. On one hand he was cast in ‘Balika Vadhu’, while on the other hand he got a chance in ‘Dharam Veer’. His character in ‘Balika Vadhu’ became a big hit. He was not in the lead role in the show, but his character was simple, straightforward and won people’s hearts. The name of the actor’s character was ‘Shyam’. In this role, Shyam is married to lead character Jagiya’s sister Sugana. Sugana is already a widow and it is revealed that she is also pregnant. Yet Shyam adopts him and sets an example in the conservative society. This role of Vikrant was iconic. Vikrant was just 23 years old while playing this character.
Left a mark in these TV shows too
The actor’s luck brightened after ‘Balika Vadhu’. He also worked in ‘Kabool Hai’. His character’s name was Ayaan, which looked quite cool and different. Vikrant also won a lot of praise by playing Murli in ‘Baba Aiso Var Dhundho’. He played different types of characters and never got typecast. Apart from ‘Mirzapur’, he also worked with Pankaj Tripathi in ‘Criminal Justice’. The actor was praised in this series also. After doing all these characters, the actor got ’12th Fail’, which gave the true fruit of his years of hard work.
