He told Jist, ¡°Milna to nahi hota. Do alag alag duniya ke log hum ho chuke hai. To humare raastein nahi takrate. Uss samay bhi dosti aisi nahi thi, uska apna ek friend circle tha, mera apna ek friend circle tha. Ek hee group mein the hum log, jab ek hee group mein kaam karte ho to sabke saath jaan pehchaan hoti hai, sabke saath uthna baithna hota hai, sabke saath khana hota hai. (We don¡¯t meet. We have become people from different worlds. So our paths don¡¯t cross. Even at that time, our friendship wasn¡¯t like that. He had his own friend circle, and I had mine. We were in the same group, and when you work in the same group, you get to know everyone, you sit and stand with everyone, you eat with everyone).¡±

Manoj Bajpayee talks about inter-faith marriage with Shabana Raza
When asked about any social pressure he may have encountered in the past, Manoj responded that Shabana's family and his own were accepting of their union.
Talking about his inter-faith marriage, he said, ¡°There were no problems, because my parents were broad-minded and her parents were broad-minded too. That¡¯s why we did not face any problems. Secondly, two people have to spend their life together. People who are wise, they never get in their way. People who are not wise, even God can¡¯t help them.¡±

In Kareeb (1998), Shabana Raza, known as Neha at that time debuted in a feature film opposite Bobby Deol. Her next film, Hogi Pyaar Ki Jeet (1999), starred her opposite Ajay Devgn in the title role. She continued acting in other movies, such as Aatma (2000), Rahul (2001), and Fiza (2000), in which she portrayed Hrithik Roshan's romantic interest. She took a break, but in 2010 she resumed acting under her own name Shabana. Manoj and Shabana were married in 2006, having first met in the 1990s.
For the unversed, Manoj Bajpayee will next be seen in Killer Soup with Konkona Sensharma.
Iraa Paul writes for Indiatimes Entertainment section - She has equal passion for hot coffee and hot OTT content. She is a pro at suggesting movies and series to watch on the weekend or when you are having a bad day.
