Manoj Bajpayee on Satya's shoot

Recently, in an interview with The Lallan Top, Manoj revealed the challenges he faced during the 'Mumbai Ka King Kaun' scene in Satya. The actor shared he performed the scene with the help of Anurag Kashyap.

I recall that Anurag Kashyap was supporting my feet during the close-up scene. In fact, in one particular shot, Saurabh Shukla, who is quite robust, wrapped himself in a black cloth and held my feet to facilitate the long shot. However, people remarked, ‘You are more visible than the cloth.’ It was quite a humorous moment," Manoj reminisced.
