Thanks @upalakbr999 for voicing my suppressed sentiments. I feel I have quietly swallowed the dismissive thoughts all these years… I had to vent it out at some point…
A @mid_day EXCLUSIVE!
Acclaimed director-actor @ananthmahadevan says he was overlooked for #ManojBajpayee’s #Governor despite winning praise for playing RBI governor S Venkitaramanan in #Scam1992. He also feels he was sidelined by #NeerajPandey for his biopic on #RDBurman & why he suits the role better than #FarhanAkhtar
How #Batwara1947 director Rajkumar Santoshi replaced him in #Halo AFTER director Santosh Sivan personally confirmed he was in it and more...
In @mid_day today.
