Vikrant Massey’s Goa Trip Was Quite Eventful
The three actors behind the success of The Sabarmati Report went from being TV actors to acting in Bollywood movies. We were curious to know about their first gigs and paychecks. Raashi Khanna revealed that she earned 5,000 for handi-modelling. Next, Vikrant shared that he got paid 200 in cash for posing for a medical catalogue when he was a kid.
Riddhi Dogra’s first paycheck came from interning with Zoom. She was paid 10,000 for a 10-day event and used the money for a trip with her friends to Goa. On that note, Vikrant shared a funny incident from his trip to Goa with friends. Back when he had just started making money, he took a trip with 5,500 and went dutch on every expense with his friends. However, when it was time to check out and pay the hotel, they all had run out of money. Finally, Vikrant Massey sold off his mobile phone to pay for the hotel and everyone’s bus tickets. Such bizarre incidents with friends later turn into the most cherished memories!
