A day after shocking fans and fellow industry mates with his announcement of an indefinite acting break, Vikrant Massey clarifies that he does not plan to retire from acting and asserts that people misread his post. The actor specified that his health has gone for a toss and he misses home, so he intends to take a long break. 

Vikrant Massey is not retiring from acting 

Vikrant Massey said, “Acting is all I can do. And it has given me everything I have. My physical and mental health have taken a hit. I just want to take some time off, want to better my craft. I feel a sense of monotony at the moment. 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."

On Monday, Vikrant took to Instagram and shared a post which read, "The last few years and beyond have been phenomenal. I thank each and every one of you for your indelible support. But as I move forward, I realize it's time to recalibrate and go back home. As a Husband, Father & a Son. And also as an Actor.”
