Seasoned Bollywood actor Manoj Bajpayee is currently on a promotional spree for his upcoming film ‘Bhaiyya Ji’. He was seen enjoying some piping hot samosas during his visit to Lucknow. Manoj took to X and shared a video, where he is seen sitting in his car, talking on the phone, and enjoying the lip-smacking samosas with some tangy chutney. A crew member asks him what he is having and where to which he replies: "Samosa. Lucknow Ka."


Manoj shared the video with the caption: “#Lucknow aayiye, muskurayiye, aur samosa khaiye. Aur haan, kal #BhaiyyaJi dekhne theatres zaroor jayiye.”



Manoj Bajpayee says with 'Bhaiyya ji', North Indians will get 'proper representation' on screen. The Padma Shri awardee, who hails from Bihar has opened up on the representation of the cultural ethnicity through such characters.

Manoj told IANS, "These are the characters that people have seen many times. Characters belonging to the North India region. This culture has been showcasing for many years, but, yeah there has been a two-decade gap, we concentrated a lot on urban stories. Somewhere these stories and characters were left behind."

"And that is why we are all very excited that after a long gap, the people of North India will get their representation on the screen, their culture, the relationship they are very familiar with, the culture that belongs to them. 'Bhaiyya ji' me hamare 'mitti' ki khusboo hain. When you make your film with all your heart, that is shown on the screen too. 'Hamne isko pure garv ke saath banaya hain'," said the actor, last seen in 'Silence 2'.

Bajpayee, who made his feature film debut with a one-minute role in the 1994 action drama 'Drohkaal', and a minor role as a dacoit in Shekhar Kapur's 'Bandit Queen', shared he was not even aware that he had completed 99 films to date.

Produced by Vinod Bhanushali, Kamlesh Bhanushali, Samiksha Oswal, Shael Oswal, Shabana Raza Bajpayee, and Vikram Khakhar under the banners of Bhanushali Studios Limited, SSO Productions, and Aurega Studios production, the film is set to release on May 24.
