“She is someone I have always admired. Apart from being a great actor, while shooting, I came to know she is a wonderful, warm person. Since we mostly shot at night, it could have been tough, but with her, it became such a pleasant time. She was fun, lively and we could connect and talk about so many things. We would sing together, and I kept asking her about her previous work which I had liked. I think I couldn’t have asked for more as I got to work with Neena ji and Manoj sir together,” shared the Bade Achhe Lagte Hain actor. 

While Sakshi Tanwar and Manoj Bajpayee may not share a lot of screen time, she said they are part of some powerful scenes, which she completely enjoyed doing. Sharing that working with Manoj Bajpayee has been a long-standing goal, the actor went on to reveal their three-decade-old connection. 

“Not many know that when I was in college in Delhi, Manoj sir had come to take a workshop. He is, in a way, my first director as he worked with us on a play Madam, where I was playing the lead. It took me 30 years to share screen space with him,” she said.
