Vikrant Massey opens up about challenges while working in the TV industry
Vikrant, known for his roles in shows like Balika Vadhu, Dharam Veer, and Baba Aisa Var Dhoondho, reflected on his experience in the television industry. He described it as a highly competitive space where actors had to work long hours to shoot and complete episodes. Recalling the challenges, he shared, “I have shot 110 hours non-stop without sleeping. One of my co-actors met with a freak accident. Toh raaton raat, writers were sitting and rewriting the episodes and vo fillers daalne the toh mein hi tha bas. (So, overnight, writers were sitting and rewriting the episodes, and there was a need to add fillers, so it was just me).”
The actor added, “Aur 110 hours ke baad bhi pack-up meri vajah se nahi hua, pack-up ek aise insaan ki vajah se hua tha jo subah 10 baje aaya tha or shaam tak vo chid gaya gusse mein aa kar chala gaya toh pack-up hua. (And even after 110 hours, the pack-up didn't happen because of me. The pack-up happened because of a person who came at 10 in the morning and by evening, he got angry and left in frustration, so the pack-up took place).”
