Manoj Bajaypayee
Manoj Bajpayee has been awarded the Special Jury Prize in the South Asia Competition at the MAMI Mumbai Film Festival 2024 for director Rama Reddy’s brilliant and cinematic love-filled film ‘The Fable’. It had its Asia premiere at MAMI last week. Announcing the award, filmmaker Kabir Khan described the film as a sophisticated and imaginative film that showcases the hard work of his entire team. He has also praised Manoj Bajpayee and now the actor’s reaction has come to light.
Manoj Bajpayee won
Manoj Bajpayee is known for his brilliant acting. Apart from Manoj, Priyanka Bose, Deepak Dobriyal, Tilottama Shome, Hiral Sidhu and Awan Pookot have also performed well in the film. Ram Reddy is currently in Spain to attend another film festival. That’s why he couldn’t stay at the closing ceremony of MAMI. But his father, producer Prathap Reddy, read out a message from him on behalf of the team, saying, ‘We would like to thank MAMI for this wonderful opportunity that has given us to showcase our film at such a warm and exciting event. Got a chance.
The Fable Maker Reaction
Rama Reddy further wrote, ‘Our team worked wholeheartedly, overcoming many challenges to bring this dream to the screen. We are extremely humbled and grateful for this recognition. In many ways, MAMI audiences have been our first audiences and we feel fortunate to have your support. Thank you all for making this dream come true.
Manoj Bajpayee told what the challenge was
Actor Manoj Bajpayee said, ‘It is a great pleasure for me to be a part of The Fable. The story once again challenged me as an actor and I was able to do something new. This character, who created a balance between nature and human emotions, taught me a lot. We started work before the pandemic, paused and then returned to complete this shoot on the mountain. The crew also did a fantastic job despite all the challenges. I am very happy to win the Special Jury Prize film at the MAMI Festival.
