Asked what makes him a game changer, Vicky told IANS by email: "I guess I'm not complying with the rules of the book." As an actor, I have not really been stuck with the kind of work that people do around me. Whether it's a protagonist, secondary or beginner role with a movie like "Masaan", all this goes against textbook laws for any future actor.

"I just tried to follow my heart and I try to work on Good projects with great directors, that's what I tried to do and I guess that's which played in my favor, "he added.

Whether Masaan, Zubaan, Sanju, Raazi, Love Per Square Foot, Lust Stories or now Uri … – Vicky has demonstrated his talent in various roles. He explained, "I did not really care about the norm, I want to give my own example, I want to give my way as an example to others and not really follow someone's journey." . "

The actor is one of the series The Party Starter 3.0 Chandon. He salutes people of different genres who have made a difference in their field. The series explores in depth the personal and professional journey of each director and informs the viewer on how the brand is an ideal partner for every moment of celebration. This year it starts with Vicky.

As a person who has been outside the box, he says that it is something that has gone organically. About Uri … and his success, he said, "This is one of those experiences that have been extremely stimulating and rewarding as an actor and as a human being, because when you have to wear this uniform to play the character of a military, it gives me a lot of responsibilities. "I have learned so much about the life of an Army officer, their families … You have just realized the kind of selfless work that they do for us all. Their quote is "service before oneself" and they really live with it. "

Did his personal ties with the army help him play better in the film?" Of course! This has allowed me to understand so well that a soldier does not just train, that he is preparing himself physically, but also mentally, that he is also strong. How for him, the country pbades before everyone else. It certainly helped me a lot to play the character. "
