Actor Vikrant Massey has bagged yet another project that will add another feather to his hat. 

Vikrant has bagged the lead role in ace cinematographer and director Santosh Sivan’s next project. Reportedly, he will be playing a young angry man in the Hindi remake of 2017 Tamil action thriller, Maanagaram. 

Sharing about his first reaction when he received the offer, Vikrant says: “When I got the first call, for a day, I didn’t believe it was happening at all. I had a wide smile on my face for a week because Asoka is one of those films that I watch every time it airs on the television."

With Sivan’s dream project on his shoulders now, the actor says it's his responsibility to deliver his best performance now.  “Now, it’s my responsibility to deliver; an actor’s job today is to be worth his audience’s time and money, regardless of the screen size they are watching him on. The budgets of my films have changed and so, the stakes have risen. But I won’t change my approach of surrendering completely to my character and director,” he says.

Vikrant Massey has been in the limelight with various projects releasing one after the another. He was last seen in Dolly Kitty Aur Woh Chamakte Sitare also starring Bhumi Pednekar, Konkana Sen Sharma and Amol Parashar. 

He is currently gearing up for the release of Ginny Weds Sunny alongside Yami Gautam, which is scheduled to release on 9 October 2020 on Netflix. He also has Haseen Dillruba and 14 Phere in his pipeline.
