Vikrant opens up on prejudice and facing bias in Bollywood amid National Award win

Vikrant Massey said people questioned his abilities due to his television background, asking 'He is a TV actor, what will he do?'

Massey stated that a person's capabilities are determined by talent and hard work, not by background or socio-economic status.

He expressed gratitude for audience support over his 20-22 year career, noting viewers still watch his older and recent projects.

Massey reflected that the enduring popularity of 'Balika Vadhu' still leads to recognition after nearly two decades.
