I remember watching Vikrant in Balika Vadhu and Baba aisa var dhundo serials long back.. but he never came across as dashing or lead hero material. Also watched him in Lootera and Dil Dhadakne Do.. again.. found him good, but also better suited for side characters.. What changed for me is the web series... I recently watched Criminal Justice, Broken but Beautiful both seasons and Made in Heaven. He is such a good actor.. and versatile as well.. Also he is not afraid to venture into uncharted territories. For eg: In Made in Heaven, he just has a brief appearance.. but he nailed his part or what.. *spoilers* I never felt so deeply for a gay romance.. he portrayed it with such sensitivity. It was too good. Also Broken but Beautiful.. especially season 2.. he played a romantic, heartbroken hero really well.. it makes me believe he can be lead hero material.. he looks a little boyish.. but waise bhi all heriones aaj kal look like teenagers..
Cant wait to watch A death in Gunj.. heard really good things about his performance...
Chapaak can push him into limelight.. Like Raazi did for Vicky.. Role secondary to female lead.. but if played correctly.. it can be game changing..
Still I feel he deserves much better roles.. These are actors who can actually act.. Cant believe he played second fiddle to that lazy Arjun in third class movie Half Girlfriend.
