Bollywood actor Manoj Bajpayee has made a name for himself with his versatile performances. Known to always keep to himself, he has very rarely opened up about his struggles and experiences. Recently while promoting his upcoming project Gulmohar, the actor opened up about the one time when Shah Rukh Khan took him to visit a disco for the first time in Delhi.
Shedding light on the same, the actor told Currly Tales that SRK took him to a nightclub called Ghungroo. He revealed that was the first time he had experienced such a lifestyle, and observed what a night club is. The actor went to reminisce how while everyone was busy dancing, he stood in a corner sipping on wine. ALSO READ: OMG! Manoj Bajpayee’s Twitter Account HACKED!
