The welcoming nature of the industry and the continuous work that I’ve done matters to me the most. But the worst part I feel that every actor faces - is the typical casting. A lot of time actors are finalised for a role as per their appearances.” 

Adding to this, Manoj said, “Take me for example, I have been type casted basis my appearance and physique. Thus my skill to portray a variety of roles as an actor couldn’t be flourished initially. But there are phases when such things happen otherwise in my career span of 35 years, I was more than blessed to have done so much.” 

When the duo was asked about the trend of actors having a team of Managers & PRs etc., Manoj commented, "It used to be a direct deal between the actor and the director earlier, we weren’t dependent on Managers & PRs. What mattered to us was - ‘who is the director’. Coming from the theatre background, our mind-set was such and we have grown that way in our career."
