In a post on Instagram, he said he will meet his fans “for the last time” in 2025. “The last few years and the times after have been phenomenal. I thank you all for your unfailing support. But as I move on, I realise it’s time to pick myself up and head back home. As a husband, father and son. And as an actor too,” he wrote.
He further added, “So in 2025 we will meet each other for the last time. Until the time feels right. Last 2 films and many years of memories. Thank you again. For everything and everything that happened in between.” He wrote “Forever indebted” at the end of the note. According to reports, Vikrant is currently shooting for two films – Yaar Jigri and Aankhon Ki Gustakhiyaan.
