Versatile actor Manoj Bajpayee spoke about his film Gulmohar ahead of attending the National Awards ceremony in New Delhi on October 8.

The actor called the film a key feature made on the importance of familial ties. Gulmohar has received three National Awards, including a special mention for lead star Bajpayee.

Speaking about his character in the movie, the actor said in Hindi, “Arun Batra’s character was wonderful. Suddenly, he feels that family is not his. He appreciates his family but is unable to connect to them any longer, so that is where it (the friction) starts. Gulmohar is an important film in modern times when families are breaking.”

Veteran actor Sharmila Tagore, who was also a part of the movie, shared a bit about her character in it, “I was kind of a matriarch in it. It is my favourite film, and I am here to cheer for Rahul Chittella (the director). The film is still being liked and watched. It has become popular amongst every age group. I am very happy with the film and congratulations to Rahul. It’s his first film!”

Also starring Suraj Sharma, Kaveri Seth and Amol Palekar among others, Gulmohar is currently available to stream on Disney Plus Hotstar.
