Vikrant Massey confirmed that he would bid farewell to acting in 2025 after completing his last two films.

Vikrant Massey surprised fans earlier today with the announcement that he will quit films after 2025. Hours later, the actor made his first public appearance at the screening of The Sabarmati Report at Balayogi Auditorium in the Parliament premises. After watching the movie with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Vikrant Massey expressed his happiness without talking about his decision to quit films.

Speaking to reporters, Vikrant expressed his gratitude for the opportunity, saying, “Personally, getting the opportunity to watch The Sabarmati Report with the Prime Minister of our country is the highest point in my career.”

However, when asked about his Instagram post announcing his retirement, Vikrant chose not to respond and walked away, leaving his co-star Raashii Khanna in an awkward spot.

The 12th Fail actor took to Instagram earlier to share the emotional decision with his followers. In the post, he thanked his supporters and reflected on his journey in the film industry. He wrote, “The last few years and beyond have been phenomenal. I thank each and everyone of you for your indelible support. But as I move forward, I realise it’s time to recalibrate and go back home, as a husband, father, a son, and also as an actor.”

Vikrant also confirmed that he would bid farewell to acting in 2025 after completing his last two films. “So coming 2025, we would meet each other for one last time. Until time deems right. Last 2 movies and many a years of memories. Thank you again. For everything and everything in between,” he concluded.

Vikrant’s latest film, The Sabarmati Report, was also screened at IFFI and has been declared tax-free in several states, including Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat, and Madhya Pradesh. Based on the real-life events surrounding the Godhra train incident, the social drama has struck a chord with audiences, collecting Rs 22 crore at the national box office since its release on November 15.
