MUMBAI : This comes a day after his cryptic social media post led fans and colleagues to believe he was stepping away from the industry for good.
In an interview with News18, Massey explained, “I’m not retiring… I’m just burned out. I miss home, and my health is also acting up. People misread it.” He added that acting has given him everything, but the demands of his career have taken a toll on his physical and mental health.
His Monday post read, “As a husband, father, son, and actor, I feel the need to pause. So, in 2025, we will meet each other for one last time. Until the time feels right.” The message sparked widespread speculation, coming during a high point in his career.
