According to the Press Trust of India (PTI), the actor has recently, addressed at the ongoing Jaipur Literature Festival.
While addressing at the fest, Bajpayee revealed that he never wanted to shift to Mumbai as earlier, anybody who was not playing hero’s role was treated as a second-class citizen by the audience, on the sets, on the posters, or at the award functions, etc. He added, “That something never went down well with me, and also for that reason I never wanted to shift to Bombay. Because I realised that at the most they can give me a villain’s role but at the end, it was all about heroes and celebrating heroes.”https://imasdk.googleapis.com/js/core/bridge3.503.0_en.html#goog_283160325
He further added that the COVID pandemic has changed the dynamics of filmmaking, the main character or the secondary characters. It gave a level playing to all the talents. “Now we are working in a time when so many women-oriented films are being made, the time has changed very quickly in this last one decade So much so that the pandemic, which has been really bad for the entire world, has been great for the entertainment industry,” Manoj Bajpayee concluded.
