Manoj Bajpayee on fallout with Hansal Mehta & protest during Dil Pe Mat Le Yaar: ‘I went to my bathroom & cried’

Manoj Bajpayee and Hansal Mehta

Manoj Bajpayee is one of the finest actors in the Hindi film industry right now, but every actor faces one challenging phase where they struggle a lot. Manoj Bajpayee also faced that challenge. During the release of 'Dil Pe Mat Le Yaar,' he had a dispute with director Hansal Mehta. The release also invited a lot of protestors. Talking about his past fallout with Hansal Mehta, Manoj Bajpayee shared how it affected him.


In a recent interview with Siddharth Kannan, Manoj Bajpayee shared that when protestors threw ink on Hansal’s face, he went to the bathroom and cried. The actor shared, “It was a difficult time for all of us. My career was slipping away from me, a career which I got after a lot of hard work. Many other unwanted people got into the project, some because of me, some because of Hansal. Things weren’t right after that. Yes, you feel bad, but I’m not the sort of person who lets arguments affect him. What I feel bad is that Hansal had to go through all that protest and people putting ink on his face. When that happened, he doesn't know this, I went to my bathroom and cried. How can this happen to someone like him? No matter what, Hansal always has been very supportive to me.”


The actor further shed light on how Hansal’s mother used to feed him and said, “When his mother died, my heart was broken because she used to feed me. The first thing she used to do whenever I used to land up at his (Hansal Mehta's) place is to get food in front of me thinking he must not have eaten."


The Gangs of Wasseypur actor further talked about the difficult times and said that it was his mistake that he used anger as the medium which pushed away a lot of people. Bajpayee shared, “Even if you are strong, you can break down after a point. Because of what happened, we ended up shouting at each other. But if you ask me today, I am not carrying it. It was all a part of the journey we went through, be it Hansal and me, be it Anurag (Kashyap) and me, or be it Ramu (Ram Gopal Varma) and me. We had many fallouts. But the only problem I had was that my emotion was more of an anger. I used to take it out in an angry way. That used to offend my friends more. If I would have cried in front of them, they would not have been offended but my emotions always came out as anger. So whenever I used to vent out my frustration, the other person used to be thrown off completely.”

On the work front, Manoj Bajpayee is currently gearing up for his action-thriller 'Bhaiyya Ji,' co-produced by his wife Shabana Raza Vajpayee.
