Manoj Bajpayee Remembers The Time He Did Not Have Money To Eat: You Learn How To Survive, It바카라�s A Life Skill

Actor Manoj Bajpayee is awaiting the release of his Netflix series 바카라�Killer Soup바카라�, which also stars Konkana Sen Sharma. During one of his promotional interactions with Indian Express, the actor remembered the time when he lived in 바카라�poverty바카라� while working in the Delhi theatre circuit. However, he soon moved to Mumbai at the insistence of 바카라�Bandit Queen바카라� director Shekhar Kapur, and how he began to realise the importance of financial security. 

Looking back at his time, he said that he values theatre more than cinema. Manoj said, 바카라�It really prepares you, physically, mentally, emotionally. It really aligns you, and that happens to every actor. But the days were of complete poverty. But those days were when you could not get the time to think about poverty. If you don바카라�t have money to eat, you바카라�re not thinking about eating, because you바카라�re so involved and engrossed in what you바카라�re doing, you바카라�re forgetting that you didn바카라�t have food.바카라� 

Hearing Manoj, his co-star Konkana chimed in and said, 바카라�That doesn바카라�t happen to everyone. How lovely that it happened to you, though.바카라� To which, Manoj added that it바카라�s 바카라�a good thing바카라� to be broke when you바카라�re young. 바카라�You learn how to survive. It바카라�s a life skill,바카라� he said.

Manoj further recalled how Shekhar Kapur asked him to join his fellow theatre actors to try their luck in Mumbai. However, things did not go really well as he moved in with Saurabh Shukla. 

바카라�First few years were very hard, because you바카라�re not doing anything. There바카라�s no difference between a boy coming straight from a small town or a village without any experience in acting, and you coming from a very strong theatre background. When you are without work, poverty pinches you more. It was true for everyone, but Saurabh was far more calmer,바카라� he said.

Meanwhile, Manoj rose to success after a chance encounter with director Ram Gopal Varma. After starring in 바카라�Daud바카라�, he featured in 바카라�Satya바카라�, which became a rage.

Next up, he is all set to star alongside Konkona and Sayaji Shinde in the upcoming dark comedy drama series 바카라�Killer Soup바카라�, which will release on Netflix on January 11.
