Sharing his personal experience

Discussing his role as Rishu in the movie, Vikrant mentioned that his character possibly has a backstory that explains why he chooses to separate his ability for violence. “I’ll share with you my personal life journey. I was practicing karate at school when I turned aggressive and began to feel unbeatable. “I confessed that I struck a boy in the jaw while playing during recess, without knowing he had epilepsy,” he stated.

Vikrant went on to say, “I witnessed a boy foaming at the mouth and passing out. His elder brother arrived and attacked me violently. Everything occurred within a short span of seconds.

Never raised my hand

I was too worried about the boy potentially dying to notice the pain from being beaten. I stopped practicing karate after realizing I had the capability to cause someone’s death. Regrettably, following that incident, I continued to be physically attacked in altercations as I chose to never defend myself again. He also highlighted that fortunately, I refrained from physically harming anyone again as the image of that boy foaming at the mouth remained fresh in my mind. I had a couple of fights with friends after that, but I made sure not to get physical again due to fear of being provoked.
