Manoj Bajpayee takes internet by storm with his take on rejection: “I was not a bad actor even when i failed”
Manoj Bajpayee shared his thoughts on success, failure, and rejection during an interactive session with the audience at Arth Cultural Fest.

He said rejection will never define you. Failure never defines you, and success never defines you. He said he, as an actor, is the same as he was 30 years ago. Even when he messed up, he was not a bad actor. He was a failure in terms of market and commercial aspects. But, in his opinion, the work he was doing was not a failure. He only knew one thing that he would get another chance to make a comeback.
Netizens are now hailing the Gulmohar actor as a great inspiration for his wise words on success, failure, and rejection. “Badi and sachchi baat kahi”, wrote a supporter. “He is a gem”, one netizen said. “Such wise words @bajpayee.manoj Sir, and love and respect to @neeleshmisra Sir for bringing such brilliant minds together”, another follower wrote.
The talented actor will next be seen in Gulmohar, a family drama starring legendary actors Sharmila Tagore and Amol Palekar, Simran Bagga, and many others. He also plans to return to OTT soon with the third season of ‘The Family Man’, his beloved crime thriller franchise directed by Raj and DK.
