The actor says that in this phase we all need to take things at it come. “As it is, these days everything is done in a small personalised affair, because of which we saved some money (laughs). In the pandemic, everyone had a hard time, and we need to avail all opportunities coming our way; that is why we both resumed work two days after our marriage.”

Vikram has wrapped his Lucknow-leg of the shoot. “Till April 30, I shot for Raktanchal-2 in Varanasi and then lockdown happened. I was supposed to do the film Vidya Kasam however that got postponed. Now, I don’t know what its fate is! Problem is that now everyone wants to start early, resulting in a conflict of projects for us actors. Now, we have to choose between the projects that have already been finalised, and in this situation, I will surely lose out on some of them.”

He recalls, earlier he was in a very comfortable situation. “Before pandemic, Sacred Games, Inside Edge and Kesari had started rolling things for me. Then, in early 2020, I shot both Raktanchal and Aashram simultaneously. But lockdown happened, and projects that were lined up one after another went haywire. Thankfully, the shows were well received, and I kept working.”

The actor has some good projects ready. “I have completed series Cartel and film Om starring Aditya Roy Kapoor. I have shot for Zeishan Quadri’s project tentatively titled Furrey in Ranchi. I will be seen next in Boney Kapoor’s upcoming film Mili starring Janhvi Kapoor, which is a remake of the Malayalam film Helen. Besides, next season of Aashram will also happen soon,” he says on a positive note.
