This is not the first that the security of the actor’s social media accounts was breached.

Please ignore any DM's or comments coming in. We're working on it," the Cargo actor wrote. Apart from Vikrant, other Bollywood stars who have fallen prey to the crime are Farah Khan, actor-politician Urmila Matondkar, and celebrity interior designer Sussanne Khan.
Meanwhile, on the work front, the actor who is currently shooting for his next web series 14 Phere, has a list of films lined up next including Haseen Dilruba and a film with Shankar Raman. While sharing his thoughts about doing a film with Shankar, the actor said that since his early career days, he was a huge fan of Gurgaon which came in 2018 and to get an opportunity to work with someone like Shankar on a script that is close to his heart, it’s a dream come true for Massey.
