Vikrant Massey says THIS on Taapsee Pannu's comment "I don't care about who the hero is" in 'Haseen Dilruba'
When it comes to versatility, Vikrant Massey is a name to swear by. The way he changes for every character appears like a work of a chameleon. For instance, his work in ‘Haseena Dilruba’ and its sequel was highly loved by critics and audiences alike. And talking of ‘ Haseen Dilruba ,’ Vikrant’s co-star Taapsee Pannu earlier made an interesting comment on doing the respective project. She said it didn’t matter who the hero is, and now Vikrant has shared his response on the same.
While talking to NDTV, the actor confessed to not taking such opinions seriously. He shrugged off the remark of his co-star.
During the interview, Vikrant was asked how ‘12th Fail’ (which was such a highly appreciated movie), didn’t make much buzz as it was not headlined by a big star. In the same conversation, the artist was asked to react to Taapsee’s comment as well. Responding to the comment, Vikrant shared, “Honestly, I don’t take offense to these things. It is true that 12th Fail didn’t have a massive star.”
“On the commercial angle, I didn’t even have a strong solo film hit the theatres before 12th Fail. So, I understand that such statements weren’t made in a condescending sense. We should healthily agree to disagree. Unfortunately, in social media and in life, we are seeing how friendships are being broken due to differing political ideologies and tolerance capacities. You just can’t seem to agree to disagree anymore. That is disturbing,” the actor added.
Circling back to Taapsee’s comment. In 2021, at a roundtable conversation, Taapsee revealed she wasn’t concerned about the male co-star in ‘Haseen Dilruba,’ as many other stars who passed the role didn’t feel the same way. “I was like, ‘Dude, it’s Haseen Dillruba.’ I don’t care about who the hero is. So, yeah, those were the kind of questions because of which others didn’t work out, and thank God for that,” said Taapsee.
Meanwhile, Vikrant Massey is currently in the news for his film ‘ The Sabarmati Report .’ Chronicling the media coverage around the 2002 Godhra train burning incident, the movie has made it to the big screens today.
