Bollywood star Manoj Bajpayee dispels rumors of entering politics for the 2024 Lok Sabha election, reaffirming his focus on acting.
Renowned Bollywood actor Manoj Bajpayee has quashed recent rumors suggesting his participation in the 2024 Lok Sabha election. The celebrated performer, known for his stellar roles in films like Joram and the upcoming crime comedy thriller Killer Soup, took to the social media platform X (formerly Twitter) to set the record straight on January 4.
Addressing a media report that claimed he would be contesting from the West Champaran constituency as part of the opposition alliance, Bajpayee responded with a touch of humor, asking, “Achcha ye bataiye ye baat kisne bola ya kal raat Sapna aaya? Boliye boliye!” which translates to “Please tell me who told you this or you had a dream last night?” This witty remark from the Joram actor serves as a clear denial of any political aspirations, reinforcing his commitment to his craft.
Earlier clarifications from Bajpayee emphasized his dedication to acting and his decision to steer clear of politics. Speculations arose when he was spotted meeting with prominent political figures such as RJD leader and former Bihar Chief Minister Lalu Yadav, along with his son Tejaswi Yadav. Despite these encounters, the actor reiterated that his focus remains on the silver screen.
