Star kids are often judged in the industry. Without knowing them, an opinion is formed that they do not know anything. Something similar happened with Sara Ali Khan also. This was revealed by Vikrant Massey himself. During an interview, Vikrant told that initially he thought that Sara was not at all serious about acting. But when he realized the truth, he immediately apologized to the actress.
Vikrant had revealed this in an interview given to Film Companion. Its video is now going viral. Vikrant told that during that time the debate on nepotism was in full swing. Unfortunately, like everyone else, he too had started thinking the same way. That’s why he had formed such an opinion for Sara. Vikrant said- Unfortunately, we all have preconceived notions in our minds and we have heard about it, there is a complete understanding of nepotism and privilege. Especially for the last two or three years, this discussion was happening continuously.
Every conversation was about this nepotism. And I also became its victim. And what happens is that a lot of what you believe depends on the noise and people around you. So somewhere I felt that yes you know him, he is a star, a popular star. I am miles away from the star circuit. Their priorities would probably be hair makeup. I told her (Sarah) and I apologized.
The actor apologized
Vikrant further said- I know, this is wrong. During the shooting of the film Gaslight, I understood in the first second how hard Sara works. What priority does she give as an actor? I was very impressed, I apologized to him for thinking like that.
Although Sara told that she does not remember when Vikrant said sorry to her, but the actress did not blame the actor for his thinking. Sara said- I have got used to it, a little bit. I understand where I come from, who I am. There are many assumptions attached to it and it doesn’t matter to me. I appreciate the fact that people are understanding enough to give me the opportunity to change those perceptions. I think Vikrant is very intelligent. It took them just 30 minutes to understand and realize that it was not what they had thought.
Vikrant also told how hard working Sara is. They used to sit together and discuss the script. Spent a lot of time. I was amazed to see his talent.
