    Vikrant Massey talks on why he chose to do Love Hostel

    Actor Vikrant Massey is overjoyed that his latest film, Love Hostel, which is currently streaming on ZEE5, has surpassed "two million hours of viewing." Vikrant is also overjoyed with the film's producer Shah Rukh Khan's words of praise for the entire cast, which includes actors Sanya Malhotra, Bobby Deol, and director Shanker Raman. His efforts have paid off, as the viewers has embraced his film. But playing Muslim boy Ahmed Shaukeen, who runs away with Hindu girl Jyoti, was not entirely a pleasurable experience for the actor.

    “I did go through quite a bit of up and downs while filming Love Hostel. I was continuously taking therapy. This film had a certain degree of emotional impact on me. Physically, yes, it gets tiring, but emotionally both Sanya and I had to go through therapy during Love Hostel. There were days when I broke down. Besides therapy, I did have my share of sleepless nights as I am not an actor who can switch on and switch off a character. For you to think like someone you are not, it does catch up with you. You start thinking like your character. You start feeling like your character. It is that journey that becomes challenging,” says Vikrant Massey.

    When we asked him about the films storyline he says, “ Let’s be truthful, there are many Ahmed and Jyoti out there. We all know what has happened with inter-faith marriages. We have seen people being ostracized for following their free will and faith in the last few years. So, the idea was to communicate that through the film.”

    In the end Vikrant claims that “I am happier than I was before. I am more at peace than I was before. I am happy about how life has been and I am living my dream. I couldn’t have asked for anything more.”

    Aside from professional success, Vikrant has began the year on a high note. Last month, he married his longtime girlfriend Sheetal Thakur.
