12th Fail actor, Vikrant Massey shared pictures of himself touching his wife, Sheetal Thakur's feet on Karwa Chauth. The pictures gained a lot of attention. Some praised the gesture, while many slammed the actor. In detail, he revealed the reason behind touching his wife's feet.
Some people liked the humble gesture of the actor touching Sheetal's feet. Many social media users also slammed him. However, the actor felt that if one wanted peace at home, then it was important to touch the wife's feet from time to time. During an interview with Lallantop, Vikrant said:
"People made those photos viral. She is the Lakshmi of my home, and I don’t think it’s wrong to touch Lakshmi’s feet. I proudly say that she came into my life 10 years ago and changed it for the better. Ever since she entered my life, only good things have happened, and to keep it that way, I continue to touch her feet.”
Vikrant Massey also fasted for his wife, Sheetal Thakur, on the auspicious day of Karwa Chauth on October 20, 2024. The pictures he shared showed him doing the traditional feet-touching ritual. He challenged the stereotypes of the festival, where women fasted for the long lives of their husbands. Vikrant had captioned the images as "Home". In one of the pictures, Sheetal was seen looking at Vikrant via a sieve, which is a prime ritual of the Karwa Chauth festival. Sheetal then touched Vikrant's feet and vice-versa.
The Balika Vadhu actor had earlier said in an interview with Youtuber Amin Jaz that his mom had encouraged him to stay with Sheetal before marriage. The couple has been together for a decade and dated eight years before getting married. He admitted liking the concept of a live-in relationship but did not feel like propagating it. He felt that it had worked out for him as it was important to understand the person before one took the plunge. In the interview, Vikrant opened up about being in a live-in relationship with Sheetal and said:
"This arrangement worked for us because our temperaments and life aspirations aligned. We lived together for nearly the entirety of our relationship, around seven years. It was my mother who suggested that we stay together. Thankfully, I have really progressive parents.”
The actor also revealed that getting the right partner is very important. Life becomes easier and better when one chooses the right person. However, he had also felt that keeping the family in the loop when it came to life-altering decisions like choosing a partner or a career was important. It was on February 18, 2022, when Vikrant and Sheetal got married in a traditional ceremony that took place in Himachal Pradesh.
