Bollywood actor Vikrant Massey has garnered significant attention, especially after the success of “12th Fail”. He recently addressed comments about the film not featuring a huge star. In an interesting twist, Taapsee Pannu had previously mentioned that the identity of the hero in “Haseen Dillruba” didn’t matter. The “Sabarmati Report” actor shared his thoughts on the matter and expressed how difficult it has become to simply agree to disagree, a trend he finds ‘disturbing’.
In an interview with NDTV, Vikrant Massey shared that he wasn’t offended by such statements. He acknowledged that “12th Fail” didn’t feature a big star and didn’t achieve major box-office success. While he received positive feedback for his performance, he pointed out that he hadn’t had a major solo hit before.
He emphasized the importance of healthy debates and the ability to agree to disagree, noting the disturbing trend of differing political views and intolerance affecting relationships, both online and in real life. “You just can’t seem to agree to disagree anymore. That is disturbing,” the actor said.
In 2021, during a Netflix roundtable, Taapsee Pannu revealed that she wasn’t concerned about the male co-star in “Haseen Dillruba”, unlike others who passed on the role. She mentioned that some actresses turned it down because of the “grey” nature of the lead character and questions about the hero. She added, “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 that kept others from working out, and thank God for that.”
Dheeraj Sarna helms “The Sabarmati Report”, which stars Raashii Khanna, Ridhi Dogra, and Barkha Singh in key roles. Produced by Balaji Motion Pictures and Vikir Films, with Shobha Kapoor, Ektaa R Kapoor, Amul V. Mohan, and Anshul Mohan as producers, the film released in theaters today, November 15, 2024.

Struggling with substance abuse afterward, his life takes another turn when a new reporter steps in to reveal the untold aspects of the incident. The film aims to offer a fresh, impactful perspective on the tragedy, uncovering a narrative that has long been ignored but has deeply affected countless lives.
