Sanjay Gupta’s Heartfelt Thoughts on Vikrant Massey’s Break

In a series of tweets, Sanjay Gupta expressed admiration for Vikrant Massey’s decision to take a break from his thriving career, acknowledging the challenges actors face when they choose to step away from the spotlight. He began by recounting Hansal Mehta’s own break from the film industry, sharing that in 2008, Mehta left Mumbai and moved to a small village in Lonavala to reconnect with himself.

The Guts It Takes to Step Away

“Do you realize the guts it takes to do that? To walk away from it all despite having a family to look after and the possibility of never directing again? It takes guts, resilience, and an insane amount of belief in yourself,” Gupta added.

Gupta drew a parallel between Mehta’s story and Vikrant Massey’s current situation, recognizing the personal sacrifices behind the actor’s decision. “In a way, Vikrant Massey is doing the same. In these times of competition, insecurity, jealousy, and rivalry, it takes guts for an actor to take a break and focus on his duties as a father, a husband, and a son. He should be lauded, not criticized,” Gupta concluded.
