Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan actor Vikrant Massey says, ‘As a young mother Deepika Padukone truly deserves work-life balance, but the fees…’’ – Firstpost

Vikrant Massey mentions that he too aspires to work for eight-hours one day. But at this moment he wants to work as much as he can.

Vikrant said, “Maybe in a couple of years…I want to go out and say, we can collaborate, but I would only work for eight- hours. But at the same time, it should be a choice. And if my producer cannot accommodate that because there are also a lot of other things involved when you are making a film. Money plays a very important role and I will have to reduce my fees as I will be working for eight hours and twelve.”

He very clearly explained, “If I cannot give my producer twelve hours a day, I cannot go out there and not reduce my fee. I ought to reduce my fee. It’s a give and take. Right?”

On work-life balance and his ‘taking a break’ tweet going viral

On being asked about his social media posts that went viral saying that “I am taking a break” and the audiences misconstrued it as retirement. He said in the interview, “I still feel work life balance is very, very important. I had put that tweet out because I wanted to go back home and spend some time with my kid and my wife and my family. And, it is it is imperative that we go back home and recalibrate, not just as actors, as people. I think we are all running at such speeds. I don’t know for what, but the idea is to sort of just go ground yourself and recalibrate yourself, find your centre again, and I think that only happens with family.”

About Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan

Vikrant Massey cannot see. Shanaya Kapoor doesn’t want to see. This is what one can gather from the trailer of Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan. The title is not just an ode to the 1999 song, but today’s idea of love too. It’s a film that tries to make a space for itself in a landscape suffocated by gore.

Bringing a fresh wave of romantic musical is the dynamic actor Vikrant and debutant Shanaya, who weave a tale of emotions, and showcase the warmth of first chance encounters, the innocence of falling in love, facing betrayal and heartbreak, but overall, coming back to each other as a part of their destiny’s plan!

Vikrant Massey will soon be seen with Shanaya Kapoor in ‘
Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan’ releasing in theatres across the country on 11th July.
