Actor Vikrant Massey, known for movies like ’12th Fail’, ‘The Sabarmati Report’ has announced taking a break from acting and this has stirred a wave of concern among his fans and followers who loved his movies especially the recent ones. The ‘Sector 36’ actor has always been loved both on screen and off screen and is not just an excellent actor but also a fitness icon. Men, who are in their 30s have a great deal to learn from the actor.
What men don’t prioritize is paying equal attention to mental health and physical health. Men in their 30s should prioritize physical fitness by incorporating regular exercise, such as strength training and cardio, to maintain muscle mass and support heart health. Nutrition is crucial—focus on a balanced diet rich in protein, whole grains, healthy fats, and essential vitamins like vitamin D and omega-3s.
Mental health deserves equal attention; managing stress through mindfulness, hobbies, or therapy can prevent burnout. Regular check-ups are vital to monitor blood pressure, cholesterol, and other markers for early detection of issues. Adequate sleep and limiting harmful habits like smoking or excessive alcohol consumption further enhance long-term well-being.
Prioritise your needs and what you like
In their 30s, men often juggle careers, relationships, and personal goals, leaving little room for self-care. Prioritizing personal needs and preferences is crucial for maintaining mental and emotional well-being. Focusing on what you truly enjoy prevents burnout, fosters happiness, and strengthens your sense of identity amidst life’s demands.
Vikrant’s decision to stop acting and focus on family is a learning lesson for those who deep inside crave to spend quality time with family and friends but are unable to do so.
This practice also enhances decision-making, as aligning actions with personal values leads to more fulfilling outcomes. Ignoring one’s needs can result in resentment, stress, and a lack of balance in life. By prioritizing yourself, you cultivate better relationships and improve overall productivity, making life richer and more meaningful.
It is okay to be vulnerable
The ’12th fail’ actor who won hearts by playing IPS Officer Manoj Sharma in the movie had recently spoken about vulnerability and the concept of masculinity. In an interview with GQ magazine he opened up on how men are becoming more attuned to their emotions and, with time, are learning to extend greater kindness to themselves and those around them.
Vikrant recently became father to a son. On his plans on raising his son, Vikrant told the media portal: I’m going to take each day as it comes. I want to be nimble and think on my feet, so I can adapt. The pace at which the world is changing is faster than most of us can comprehend, so there’s no point in planning ahead. The priority is to ensure my baby is healthy, and apart from that, I’m just soaking it all in.
“I realise it’s time to recalibrate and go back home”
“The last few years and beyond have been phenomenal. I thank each and every one of you for your indelible support. But as I move forward, I realise its time to recalibrate and go back home. As a Husband, Father & a Son. And also as an Actor,” he wrote.
“So coming 2025, we would meet each other for one last time. Until time deems right. Last 2 movies and many a years of memories. Thank you again. For everything and everything in between,” Vikrant has penned an emotional note on Instagram announcing his break from acting.
