"It Is Privilege To Be Sharing First National Award With Shah Rukh Khan," Says Vikrant Massey –

Vikrant Massey on Winning National Award:

Actor Vikrant Massey is on cloud nine after winning his first National Film Award for Best Actor for his powerful performance in 12th Fail. Sharing the honour with superstar Shah Rukh Khan (for Jawan), Vikrant expressed heartfelt gratitude and reflected on his journey from a young dreamer to one of India’s most respected performers.

Reacting to the prestigious win, Vikrant said, "I want to thank the Honourable Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, the NFDC, and all the esteemed jury members of the 71st National Film Awards for considering my performance worthy of this recognition. I also want to thank Shri Vidhu Vinod Chopra ji for giving me this opportunity."

Calling the moment a deeply personal milestone, he added, "Today, if I may say so, a 20-year-old boy’s dream has come true. I am eternally grateful to the audiences for honouring my performances and for recommending this film with such love. It is a privilege to be sharing my first National Award with an icon like Shah Rukh Khan.”

Massey also used this occasion to dedicate his win to a larger cause, saying, “Lastly, I dedicate this award to all the marginalised people in our society — those who are often looked through, and those who are fighting the socio-economic paradigm of our country every single day.”

We, at Movie Talkies, congratulate Vikrant for the win and hope to see more in future.
