What Manoj said

Manoj Bajpayee was last seen in Silence 2.

In the interview, Manoj said: “Because my daughter is now getting good marks in Hindi and slowly her Hindi is improving. Because she wasn’t speaking Hindi in school and even if we don’t speak then there will be a problem. Phir toh woh Taylor Swift hi sunegi (Then she will only listen to Taylor Swift).”

He further added during the conversation that if they do not speak in their regional language with their child, they are missing out on learning it altogether. “Punjabi or Gujarati, whatever you want to teach your kid, speak to them in those languages from the beginning. In Mumbai, kids will not learn their language unless you speak to them.”

More details

In the conversation, Manoj was asked whether her daughter sees his films. To this, Manoj shared that his daughter loved his performance in Sirf Ek Bandaa Kaafi Hai and watched it thrice. She also loved Gulmohar and cried after watching the film, which starred veteran actor Sharmila Tagore in a pivotal role.
