For Vedant Sinha, returning to The Family Man 3 is more than just stepping into a character it’s going back to the place that shaped him as an actor. And at the heart of that growth is his bond with Manoj Bajpayee. “Manoj sir has been my acting school,” Vedant says, calling the veteran actor his greatest influence.
Vedant recalls that he was very young when he first met Manoj Bajpayee, and at that time, he didn’t fully grasp the privilege of working with someone of such calibre. Over the years, however, he realised how deeply Manoj influenced his craft. “He never sits me down to teach, but I keep learning by just watching him,” Vedant shares. “His patience, his respect for every person on set, his commitment it inspires me every day.”
