“It was a bad film, bad film. After the film she (Shabana) called me and I asked how she liked the film, and she said, stop doing films for money. We are not so desperate that you did it for money. It was embarrassing, I felt insulted, humiliated in the theatre, don’t ever do it, please! You are good at stories and characters, please choose them, not these films, you don’t need to prove anything else.”

Manoj Bajpayee revealed if he is ever bothered to work on films with controversial topics

Manoj Bajpayee has worked on some critically acclaimed films, such as Aarakshan, Special 26, Satyagraha among others, which have covered quite a few controversial topics. Nonetheless, the actor has never fretted away from playing pivotal roles in such crucial films and does not bother himself with the possibility of ill-reaction it might fetch from the audience. Speaking about the same in an interview with Pinkvilla, Manoj mentioned:

“When there's a story and there's a script, if it moves you emotionally, if it shakes up your conscience, and if there is an opportunity for you to just attach yourself with this project, and be part of a great end up.”

"I am scared of my daughter and my wife. I am very scared. Sometimes I make the mistake of getting into an argument. Then I hit my head, thinking about why I got into an argument with them. It is a lose-lose game. They gang up against me all the time. As she is growing up, she is becoming more and more ferocious with her arguments."
