In an industry where stardom often overshadows substance, Interrogation, a psychological drama directed by Ajoy Verma Raja, signifies a notable development바카라”the cinematic debut of Manu Singh. Cast by producer Piyush Dinesh Gupta, Singh was selected not for stardom, but for his authenticity and raw talent, positioning him as a distinctive new presence in Indian cinema.

Manu Singh was raised in a traditional middle-class household in Delhi. His formative years were shaped by a deep-seated curiosity about human behavior and emotion. Recalling his early interests, Singh notes, 바카라œAs a child, I was always watching바카라”teachers, relatives, strangers. I felt deeply, and somewhere in that process, I was learning to become someone else.바카라 These observations laid the groundwork for his interest in acting, long before formal opportunities arose.

His early experiments with performance were both earnest and unorthodox바카라”from portraying historical figures like Shivaji Maharaj to Hema Malini바카라”an act that won him school accolades despite gender-bending challenges. Nevertheless, despite evident passion, Singh바카라™s entry into professional acting was neither immediate nor assured.

바카라œThere were days when it felt like the dream was slipping away. No auditions, no feedback, no income바카라”just silence,바카라 Manu says. A failed audition involving a poorly applied moustache nearly led him to quit. However, on a friend바카라™s encouragement, he made one final attempt, which led to callbacks and ultimately a meeting with filmmaker Piyush Dinesh Gupta.

Gupta recognized a quality in Singh that went beyond technical skill. 바카라œManu didn바카라™t come in polished,바카라 he explains. 바카라œHe came in honest. That honesty바카라”his vulnerability바카라”it was striking. I wasn바카라™t looking for a performer. I was looking for someone real. He was it.바카라 Singh was cast as Vishal Parashar, a conflicted protagonist entangled in guilt and the search for justice.

To prepare for the role, Singh immersed himself in the world of criminal justice바카라” spending time in police stations, observing court trials, even fasting to heighten his emotional sensitivity of his character. 바카라œI needed to feel the isolation, the moral pressure my character was under,바카라 he explains. 바카라œThat meant living a version of it, even off camera.바카라

The film, a gripping psychological drama, co-stars acclaimed actors Rajpal Yadav and Yashpal Sharma, and is helmed by director Ajoy Verma Raja. Shot across the stark and stirring landscapes of Ladakh, Interrogation is jointly produced by Piyush바카라™s banner Naam Mein Kya Rakha Hai and Aryan Brothers, led by Kunwar Pragy Arya and Inderveer.

Gupta바카라™s decision to cast an unknown talent has drawn industry attention. 바카라œWe don바카라™t need more stars바카라”we need more truth,바카라 he asserts. 바카라œManu brought that. He brought fire, depth, and above all, integrity.바카라 The film is scheduled for a digital release on Zee5 on May 30th, 2025.

For Manu Singh, Interrogation is more than a debut바카라”it is a defining moment. 바카라œI바카라™ll never forget what Piyush sir did for me,바카라 Singh says. 바카라œHe looked past the noise, past the lack of experience, and chose to believe. That belief changed everything.바카라
