When Manoj Bajpayee was asked if he takes a shot of vodka before every take
While speaking at a podcast for the YouTube channel Bharti TV, Manoj Bajpayee recalled an interesting incident from his film. The actor shared that when he was shooting for Joram he came to know through a co-artist on the sets that he's popular for having a vodka shot before every take.
The actor said that the girl shared how she's enjoying working with him. But after he thanked her and the conversation moved ahead, she told him about people's perception of him. Manoj who was surprised by the revelation clarified that he doesn't drink hard liquor.
Manoj then shared that the girl asked him about the bottle he carries and drinks from it every few hours. This is when he shared that it's a medicine, “I said ‘are you crazy? This is homeopathic medicine.' People think I go on the set after having a vodka shot, 'yeh toh sharabi hai kebabi hai,'”(he is a drunkard)" he said and concluded by saying that because he takes homeopathic medicine, which requires him to take a certain number of drops straight from the bottle, people thought that he's a drunkard.
