Vikrant Massey talks about his role in Sector 36
While speaking about his character in Sector 36, Vikrant Massey said in a recent interview, “I found that certain scenes presented an opportunity to showcase a different side of myself. While shooting those scenes, I often felt my hands and feet go cold, not due to lack of preparation but because of the emotional weight of the story I was telling. It hits hard.”
Massey also shared how his past experiences helped him prepare for his role in Sector 36. “I’m glad that my past experiences helped me prepare for Sector 36. In films like A Death In The Gunj and Love Hostel, my emotional and mental health took a toll. So when I signed up for Sector 36, I told myself, ‘Vikrant, approach this character, Prem Singh, professionally. Work hard, but make sure you don’t get too engrossed in it. Your mental and emotional well-being will go for a toss,” Vikrant added.
Vikrant Massey kept motivating himself for yet another day on the set of Sector 36. “Shooting away from home adds another layer of challenge. You’re not returning to your family after a long day; instead, you’re going back to a hotel, which can be daunting. There were moments on set when I felt genuinely scared. I wouldn’t say I was nervous, but I felt that cold sensation in my hands and feet while filming. Which is why I was adamant about not bringing the character home with me,” Vikrant concluded.
