I feel a sense of monotony at the moment,” Vikrant said. He further explained, “My post has been misinterpreted. That I am quitting or retiring from acting. I want to take some time off to focus on my family and health. I would be back when the time feels right.”
The confusion arose after a heartfelt post from the actor, which spoke about his struggles with the pressures of work and the toll it has taken on him. Vikrant’s openness about needing a break resonated with fans, but also led to speculation about his departure from the film industry.
