New Delhi, May 20, 2023: Renowned for his refined acting skills, the award-winning actor Manoj Bajpayee has left an everlasting imprint on the hearts and minds of the audience. Praised for bold roles and opinions, this time the actor is all set to speak his mind in an exclusive episode of Aap Ki Adalat’.

In his debut appearance at the headline-making show, Manoj Bajpayee will engage in a candid conversation with India TV Editor-in-Chief Rajat Sharma this weekend on May 20, Saturday at 10 PM. From his upcoming courtroom drama based on self-styled godman Asaram Bapu to the issue of favoritism in the industry, the actor will touch upon diverse issues.

Talking about the ongoing row surrounding his upcoming movies, Bajpayee said, “Bandaa is one of the best films of my career. It is about the safety of the children and sends a message to parents and society on how to protect them from the dangerous world outside. This film was not made to defame Asaram Bapu.”
