His sensitive portrayal of a troubled youngster in <em>A Death In The Gunj<\/em>, a reluctant gangster with a heart in Mirzapur, a homosexual man in Made In Heaven, an angry activist in <em>Chhapaak<\/em> has won him wide acclaim from all nooks and corner. And now, it seems like he has ramped up his fashion game as he makes a debonair style of statement on the latest cover of GQ India.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1133677\" src=\"https:\/\/stat1.bollywoodhungama.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Vikrant-Massey-makes-a-sharp-statement-on-GQ-India-talks-about-relatability-being-the-basis-of-his-characters-1.jpg\" alt=\"Vikrant Massey makes a sharp statement on GQ India; talks about relatability being the basis of his characters \" width=\"620\" height=\"775\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Donning a pair of trousers with a crisp white shirt and a cool jacket, he is slaying the pastel look. He has subtly crushed the stereotype that pastel palette is not for men. The 33-year-old actor is seen shining in pink and pulling off the casual ensemble with panache, acing the sartorial game.<\/p>\n<p>In the interview with the magazine, Vikrant talks about how almost all of his characters resonate with the audience for being so real. \u201cRelatability is the basis of my characters. If I\u2019m not able to penetrate through the screen, through the defense mechanisms of those sitting in the audience, it\u2019d all be futile. If I can\u2019t make them really experience a character, no matter how vulnerable or how much of an asshole he is, they\u2019d walk away. There\u2019s only one way to achieve genuine change. Break all barriers,\u201d says the actor who is a shining example of a risk taker and a rule breaker.<\/p>\n<p>He goes on to confide that the first few months of the lockdown have been a period of \u201cintrospection\u201d for him. A lover of art, he spent his days reading his favourite Khushwant Singh and watching <em>Maqbool.<\/em> He shares, \u201cI\u2019d been living out of a suitcase for the past 2-3 years, moving from the film set to film set, and hotel to hotel. It\u2019s been very taxing, so the first few months of the lockdown brought some respite. I\u2019ve spent more time with my family in the past 5 months than in the past few years.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On the work front, Vikrant recently had two digital premieres, Cargo where he plays a human demon, and <em>Dolly Kitty Aur Woh Chamakte Sitare<\/em> where he essays a man whose blossoming new romance goes for a toss. His performances in both of these films have received rave reviews. The actor has a choc-o-bloc schedule over the next few months. He has <em>Ginny Weds Sunny<\/em> slated for a release and will be finishing the patchwork for <em>Haseen Dillruba<\/em> and kick-start the first schedule of <em>14 Phere<\/em> in November.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" style=\"background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 540px; min-width: 326px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);\" data-instgrm-captioned=\"\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CFRybfkHrtd\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"12\"\/>\n<h4>ALSO READ: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/news\/features\/vikrant-massey-returns-work-six-months-confides-feared-going-sets\/\">Vikrant Massey returns to work after six months; confides he feared going to the sets<\/a><\/h4>\n<h4\/>\n<div class=\"entry-tags\">\n<div class=\"tag-links\"><strong>Tags : <\/strong> <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/cargo\/\" rel=\"tag\">Cargo<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/dolly-kitty-aur-woh-chamakte-sitare\/\" rel=\"tag\">Dolly Kitty Aur Woh Chamakte Sitare<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/fashion\/\" rel=\"tag\">Fashion<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/features\/\" rel=\"tag\">Features<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/gq\/\" rel=\"tag\">GQ<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/gq-india\/\" rel=\"tag\">GQ India<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/india-lockdown\/\" rel=\"tag\">India Lockdown<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/lifestyle\/\" rel=\"tag\">Lifestyle<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/lockdown\/\" rel=\"tag\">Lockdown<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/magazine\/\" rel=\"tag\">Magazine<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/mirzapur\/\" rel=\"tag\">Mirzapur<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/style\/\" rel=\"tag\">Style<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/vikrant-massey\/\" rel=\"tag\">Vikrant Massey<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<h2 alt=\"Bollywood News\" title=\"Bollywood News\" style=\"font-size: 0.9rem;\">BOLLYWOOD NEWS<\/h2>\n<p>Catch us for latest <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/bollywood\/\" style=\"color:#000;font-weight: bold;\" alt=\"Bollywood News\" title=\"Bollywood News\">Bollywood News<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/movies\/\" style=\"color:#000;font-weight: bold;\" alt=\"New Bollywood Movies\" title=\"New Bollywood Movies\">New Bollywood Movies<\/a> update, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/box-office-collections\/\" style=\"color:#000;font-weight: bold;\" alt=\"Box office collection\" title=\"Box office collection\">Box office collection<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/movie-release-dates\/\" style=\"color:#000;font-weight: bold;\" alt=\"New Movies Release\" title=\"New Movies Release\">New Movies Release <\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/hindi\/\" style=\"color:#000;font-weight: bold;\" alt=\"Bollywood News Hindi\" title=\"Bollywood News Hindi\">Bollywood News Hindi<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/\" style=\"color:#000;font-weight: bold;\" alt=\"Entertainment News\" title=\"Entertainment News\">Entertainment News<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/news\/\" style=\"color:#000;font-weight: bold;\" alt=\"Bollywood News Today\" title=\"Bollywood News Today\">Bollywood News Today<\/a> &amp; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/movies\/\" style=\"color:#000;font-weight: bold;\" alt=\"upcoming movies 2020\" title=\"upcoming movies 2020\">upcoming movies 2020 <\/a> and stay updated with latest hindi movies only on Bollywood Hungama.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async defer src=\"https:\/\/platform.instagram.com\/en_US\/embeds.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/news\/features\/vikrant-massey-makes-sharp-statement-gq-india-talks-relatability-basis-characters\/\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vikrant Massey has proved his mettle time and again.
