Dear Varun,
Matt Cutts is not saying it will harm all websites - only that 'saying that the ability to have and use rich snippets may be taken away for low quality sites in the coming months.'*
So you have to make the decision if you think the article / website is of low quality. If you post high quality content, it shouldn't harm your website but it even will lift your website because it becomes harder to have your authors displayed in the SERPs.
