Thirty years, three National Awards, and 100 films—it’s quite a career, put in numbers. Next month, Manoj Bajpayee will be seen in his 100th film, Bhaiyya Ji. The actor finds it hard to believe that he has reached the milestone. “Even now when you are mentioning it, it feels surreal,” he smiles. For the actor, who left his village in Bihar to pursue his celluloid dreams, it feels like a miracle. “Coming from outside, taking such a long journey from my village to this point is miraculous. I always feel some kind of magic is happening with my life and career. Someone up there has really been taking care of me.”
