    His role in Gangs of Wasseypur being my most favorite. What a movie that was !!!!!!!!

  • Watched fan today and I must say that those who didn’t like this movie are very miserable and depressing people who don’t have a life.. It was epic.. Blockbuster performance.. Couldn’t go earlier because of exams but I’m blessed to witness such a movie.. Poor ignorant pitiful people who didn’t like the movie..
    And ya.. Kudos to manoj.. Although I didn’t watch this movie.. May be I’ll watch it now

  • Master of Acting Manoj bajpai ! But sad he never won the best actor award for his brilliant performance in gangs of wasepur ! And our self proclaimed king bought his 8th best actor award ! U guys know which award m talking -_-

    He was terrific in GOW. But that movies really belongs to Nawaz imo. He was just show stopper and stealer.

    nonetheless, national award could be in order for Manoj here.

  • Manoj sir is a phenomenal actor who does roles for inner satisfaction as an actor, not for money. He even refused a role in Dangal when Aamir himself offered it to him.
    Salute to such a great actor.

  • He is the best Actor, his acting is beyond award, Watching him on big screen is totally different Feeling.
    I love Akshay Kumar because he is the only Versatile Superstar of Bollywood.
