Vikrant has always been open about the diverse religious background of his family. His father is Christian, his mother is Sikh, and his brother converted to Islam at the age of 17.
Actor Vikrant Massey, who became a father in February 2024 to a baby boy named Vardaan, recently shared a personal decision about how he and his wife are raising their child. Speaking to Rhea Chakraborty on her podcast, Vikrant revealed that they chose to leave the religion column blank on their son’s birth certificate.
He said, “The moment we got his birth certificate, I put a dash in the religion column. I will be so heartbroken if I realise my son is treating anyone on the basis of the practices they follow. I am not raising my son that way.”
“Religion Is a Personal Choice”
Vikrant explained that religion is a personal and sensitive topic for him. He said, “I think religion is a personal choice. For me, it’s a way of life. I think everyone has the right to choose their religion.” He added that his home has people following different faiths and said, “Mere ghar pe har prakaar ke religion aapko milenge. I think religion is man-made. Mai pooja karta, gurudwara bhi jaata hun, dargah bhi jaata hun.” He believes in God and finds peace in all forms of prayer.
