Masaan, which was released in 2015, was a turning point in Indian indie cinema. It quietly made its mark with powerful storytelling and strong performances.

The film premiered at the Cannes Film Festival, where it received a standing ovation. It also won two major awards there.
Set in Varanasi, Masaan tells two parallel stories. One follows Devi, played by Richa Chadda, a young woman dealing with personal tragedy and social judgment. The other focuses on Deepak, played by Vicky Kaushal, a man who works at the cremation ghats but dreams of a better life. The film touched on deep themes like love, grief, caste, and hope, and was praised for portraying the real lives of people often left out of mainstream cinema.

Meanwhile, on the work front, Vicky was last seen in ‘Chhaava,’ which performed well at the box office. Looking ahead, Vicky is set to appear in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s upcoming film ‘Love and War’ alongside Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor.
